Nominations sought for county volunteer awards
The Volunteer Centre of Guelph and Wellington, in partnership with Wellington County, is now accepting nominations for the 7th annual county Volunteer Appreciation awards.

There will be one recipient selected from each municipality in the county: Puslinch, Guelph-Eramosa, Centre Wellington, Mapleton, Wellington North, Erin and Minto.
Organizers are encouraging people to consider nominating a volunteer in their area.
