SADC accepting nominations for Sigourney Star Award

The Sigourney Area Development Corporation (SADC) is seeking nominations for their annual Sigourney Star Award for a member of the community making a difference for others, in time for their winter raffle later this year.

            The Star Award was created in 2007 and has been awarded to 10 individuals and groups since its inception. The award is presented to a person or group of persons that are from the Sigourney area and “have provided outstanding and selfless service and leadership to community projects, community groups or individuals” according SADC.

            “We want to recognize that outstanding leadership and community, to give credit where credit is due,” Judy Frank, Administrative Assistant for SADC said. “They go above and beyond what is expected in the community.”

            Groups have been awarded or nominated in the past, including organizations, couples, or all individuals involved in an event. Anyone is able to nominate another person for the award. The SADC Board of Directors, including non-voting members, rate the nominees to select the best possible candidates available for the award.

            SADC Board Member Casey Thompson will present the winner a plaque at the SADC winter raffle on Friday, Nov. 11. A master plaque is also located in the SADC office on E Washington Street, with all the names from each year engraved to recognize past winners.

            For those who wish to nominate a person, stop in the office and fill out a form. The form is also available on their wesbsite, Sigourney.com. Completed forms must be submitted to SADC no later than noon on Friday, October 14. For more information, contact SADC at 641-622-2288 during normal business hours Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to noon, or email them at sadc@sigourney.com.
