Lions Club seeks Citizen of the Year nominations
The Bluffton Lions Club is seeking nominees for the 2024 Citizen of the Year Award. The award was established in 1981 to honor a person, couple, or person representing a group, who has selflessly given time, effort, and talent for the benefit of those in the Bluffton area, and whose dedication and achievements have profoundly improved the quality of life of the people in this area.
The nominee may be living, or deceased within the last year. This year’s winner will be feted at a banquet on April 15, 2025.
Anyone interested in making a nomination may obtain an application by contacting John Rich (419-358-5405) or visiting the Lions Club website at https://www.blufftonlions.org/citizen-year
Nominations will be accepted until February 28, 2025, and should be returned to Bluffton Lions Club, Box 223, Bluffton, Ohio 45817.
