Annual Chamber Service Awards
 The Plymouth Area Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominees for their annual awards program honoring citizens who have made, by their selfless service, contributions for the betterment of our area communities.
The awards presented are for:
Distinguished Citizen: awarded to a person who has made positive contributions to the quality of life in the Plymouth area.
Volunteer: awarded to a person who contributes volunteer talents and time to worthwhile organizations.
Youth Service: awarded to a person who demonstrates exemplary service to the youth of the community.
Public Servant: awarded to the person who demonstrates outstanding leadership in the public sector.
These honors may be given to people who qualify through lifetime achievement or extraordinary contributions in the past year. A five-person committee, separate from the Chamber, will select the Distinguished Citizen based on the nominations turned into the committee. The Distinguished Citizen award also includes a $500.00 check from the Chamber donated in the Distinguished Citizen’s name to a charity of the recipient's choice.
