Do you know a watershed hero?
They’re the individuals, families, groups and businesses who put their time and energy into improving the Grand River watershed.
Many do it without recognition, satisfied with the legacy they leave for future generations. The Grand River Conservation Authority (GRCA) thinks such individuals deserve to be acknowledged and is looking for nominations for its annual Watershed Awards, which the authority has presented since 1976.
There are two categories:
– Honour Roll Awards – presented for a sustained record of environmental achievement over an extended period of time; and
– Watershed Awards for outstanding examples of environmental work.
Nominations can come from anyone in the watershed. The deadline for nominations is May 1. For more information visit www.grandriver.ca/awards. The winners will be honoured at a special event in October.
