Dear Community Partners,

The Newton Parks and Recreation Commission and the Newton Health and Human Services Youth Commission are asking your help in seeking nominations for the annual Youth Services Awards. We recognize the hard work and dedicated efforts Newton citizens so generously contribute to youth work and community service. Their many important contributions constantly enrich the lives of young people in our community. The Youth Service Awards represent a small token of the City’s appreciation for the recipients’ commitment to youth and to the community.

There is a full description of the awards and nomination forms online at: http://www.newtonma.gov/gov/parks/%5Cdefault.asp . The youth award tab is on the bottom left hand side of the screen and will take you directly to the descriptions and nomination forms.

Please submit nominations of deserving Newton residents before May 20th. Thank you for your support! If you have any questions, please contact Nancy at 617-796-1506.
