National Volunteer Week 2025

Last night was a truly heartwarming celebration at the Memorial Hall as we honoured the incredible volunteers who make our community shine!
The annual Volunteer of the Year Awards, as part of National Volunteer Week, brought together inspiring stories from lifelong volunteers like Max Griffiths and Peter McGillivray, reminding us all of the profound impact that dedication and service can have.
We were also thrilled to hear from our amazing award recipients, whose commitment to helping others is nothing short of inspiring. A special thank you to Dave Bailey for providing entertainment, and to The Missing Pieces for the delicious supper that fuelled our celebration!
Congratulations to our outstanding award winners:
  • Volunteer Service Award (up to 5 years) – Juanita Otto
  • Major Volunteer Service Award (5-10 years) – Audrey Evans
  • Outstanding Volunteer Service Award (over 10 years) – Melissa McGillivray
