Press release:
The Genesee County & City of Batavia Youth Boards are looking for nominations for their annual Youth Recognition Banquet. There are three awards presented at the Youth Recognition Banquet:
- Youth Recognition Award — This award recognizes young people who have performed exceptional service to the community and/or have assumed extraordinary roles in their families. Typically, the best candidates for this award are high school students, but we also know there are 12-, 13-, and 14-year-olds who exemplify distinctive qualities of service. Several youth will be recognized; however the Youth Boards reserve the right to limit the number of recipients.
- Adult Volunteer — This award recognizes an adult who provides service as a volunteer to youth in Genesee County.
- Adult Youth Worker — This award recognizes a youth service professional whose work surpasses normal expectations.
Recipients will be honored at the Youth Recognition Banquet on March 28. Nominations are due by Friday, Feb. 15th.
