When you make your nomination, please explain in a few sentences why you think this person should be Tibbits Volunteer of the Year. It would also be helpful to leave instructions on how we can reach you if we have any questions.          

The winner will be announced at the annual Volunteer Reception on Tuesday, April 13, at the Tibbits Opera House. All the fun starts at 5:30 PM.
