Volunteers without Capes

The photo illustrates the crowd of local volunteers who were honoured last night by the Town for their tremendous contribution to the vitality of Halton Hills. Although all volunteers were invited to attend, most are too busy volunteering to actually take advantage of this special evening. However, approximately 275 volunteers were in attendance and they certainly represented a wide range of volunteer activities.

The theme of the evening was, You Don't Need A Cape to Change the World. In keeping with the theme, youth members of the Georgetown Little Theatre were dressed up as super heroes and helped add to the festive atmosphere. An array of finger foods were donated by our generous local businesses.

Council decided that we would like to host such an event once per council term, or every 4 years. The volunteers present seemed to really enjoy the reception. It is important that we make the effort to recognize their efforts. Our sincere thanks go out to all of our volunteers.
