Outstanding contributions recognized By Wilma Oke TUCKERSMITH TWP. - Through the new Canada program named Celebration 88 the township will be able to award some of its citizens who have made outstanding con- tributions to amateur sports and another group who have contributed to the quality of life in their community. A committee has been formed, anonymous at this time, which will adver- tise for nominations required for these awards. Anyone in Tuckersmith wishing to nominate a deserving citizen is requested to mail these names to the township office at Vanastra before January 4. The nominations required are an outstaw ding athlete in the township, one male and one female; a volunteer for his or her unselfish contributions to their sport and community; a coach for devoting his or her time to the encouragement of fair play and sportsmanship and for bringing out the best in the athletes under his or her guidance; an official - an individual for devoting his or her time to the promotion of fair play and sport- smanship; a sponsor - a business that has contributed monetarily or with services in kind, towards the development of amateur sport in the township. The local celebration committee is asked to identify individuals for Celebration 88 certificates - they deserve recognition for their unselfish contribution to the communi- ty. Their contribution can be any inspira- tional nature and recipients can be recogniz- ed for demonstrating the Olympic spirit in business, education, culture or community service, etc. Both for the medal and certificate awards the committee is asked to solicit nomina- tions from the community and to select reci- pients by consensus.
