Help the Town of Oakville refresh the Community Spirit Awards

Tue, 13 Sep 2022

Residents invited to take the online survey open until October 7

After celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Community Spirit Awards at the Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts last fall, the Town of Oakville has decided to put this year’s event on pause to review opportunities to expand the community recognition program.

The Community Spirit Awards celebrate individuals, not-for-profit organizations, social enterprises and businesses who positively contribute to the quality of life of Oakville residents. The awards help inspire and encourage residents and stakeholders of all ages and abilities to make a difference in their community through volunteer efforts, community service, or acts of kindness.

Residents are invited to help refresh and reenergize the awards by taking the online survey open until October 7, 2022. Feedback received will help guide what the award categories, event format, and recipient recognition could look like in the years to come.

The short online survey takes five minutes to complete and is strictly confidential and anonymous. Residents will have the option to provide an email address if they would like a chance to win a prize pack.
