Citizen of the Year
About
Since 1979, Belvedere citizens have been nominating exceptional community volunteers for the Citizen of the Year award. Belvedere is blessed with many hardworking individuals who make our community tick, whether volunteering in an official government capacity, serving in one of Belvedere's many community groups, or working individually.
In 1991, the Citizen Emeritus Award was established to honor hardworking citizens, usually senior citizens, not already recognized with a Citizen of the Year award.
For more information, please get in touch with the Citizen of the Year Board Chair, Peyton Stein.
