To express our gratitude for the time and effort dedicated by our volunteers, including members of Committees, Boards, and Service Clubs, nominations are now open for our 2025 Volunteer Recognition Awards: the Brockton Good Neighbour Award and the Outstanding Youth Award in partnership with the Walkerton & District Optimist Club. Visit on our Volunteer Appreciation webpage to view more information about the awards and how to submit your application. Nominations will be accepted until May 26, 2025 at 4:30 p.m. We encourage you to submit a nomination for community members and outstanding youth that you feel should be recognized for their efforts!

Good Neighbour Award

Nominees for this award should be someone who has taken the initiative to do spontaneous or unheralded deeds, rather than participation in group activities such as those with community groups or associations that result in Brockton being a more enjoyable community to live in. Activities must embody a strong sense of values, promote the positive impact of good neighbourly deeds and have contributed to the vitality and fabric of our community.

Outstanding Youth Award

This award is designed to recognize outstanding youth in our community! The purpose of this award is to provide recognition for the outstanding community service that our youth do. Recognition will be considered for those youth that are striving to make our community a better place to live and learn. The award will be geared towards those that fulfill the criteria outside of regular school, organized art or sport team requirements. This year's award aligns with The Optimist Creed.
