Montgomery County, TN – Nominations for the Ninth Annual Governor’s Volunteer Stars Awards are now being accepted within Montgomery County. The awards will celebrate the efforts of volunteers who strive to improve their communities through service.

Nominees will be judged based on the community’s needs of the volunteer service performed, initiative taken to perform the service, creativity used to solve a community problem and impact of the volunteer service on the community.
Nomination forms are available at the Montgomery County Mayor’s Office, 1 Millennium Plaza, and online at www.mcgtn.org
Nominations must be received by the County Mayor’s Office by Friday, December 16th, 2016.
