Senior of the Year

The Ontario Senior of the Year Award gives each municipality in Ontario the opportunity to honour one outstanding local Ontarian who after the age of 65 has enriched the social, cultural or civic life of his or her community.

The 2023 Senior of the Year Award was presented Frank Pacheco. Frank was presented her certificate by Mayor Carolyn Amyotte and attended a meeting of Council on June 20, 2023

Staff Awards

Council presents Long Standing Service Awards to staff. Staff is also recognized by Council for diplomas, certifications, certificates and awards they have achieved related to their municipal responsibilities. Our employees are members of many associations related to their job function. Many of these organizations provide education and training courses designed to keep staff up to date on legislation, current best practices, health and safety and skills development.
