Do you know someone who has excelled academically or in the sporting arena, or someone who has performed a great service to the community?
Nominations are open for the Campbelltown City Australia Day Awards, which give community members and employers the opportunity to acknowledge those significant contributions by nominating worthy recipients.
There are four award categories including Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of the Year, Sportsperson of the Year and Community Group Initiative of the Year. Nominees must be Australian citizens and live in the Campbelltown Local Government Area. Community organisations must be based locally.
Recipients will be selected based on a range of criteria, including the type and quality of service, educational and sporting achievement, and individual acts of excellence, compassion, generosity or bravery.
Award recipients will be announced as part of Australia Day celebrations on 26 January 2019.
Mayor of Campbelltown, Cr George Brticevic, said the online nomination process makes it possible for Council learn about people who have made a difference.
"Campbelltown would not be the great place it is without those willing to be their best or do their best for their community. I encourage everyone to help us identify those worthy of recognition on Australia Day," he said.
Nominations will be accepted until Thursday 1 November.
