Owens Community College’s Alumni Association will recognize the contribution area police, fire and emergency medical professionals make to the Northwest Ohio community at the eighth annual Outstanding Service Awards. The recipients will be honored as part of a community celebration April 29 at 8 a.m. in the Audio/Visual Classroom Center rooms 125-128.

The Alumni Association is currently accepting nominations for service awards. Nominations are being sought for individuals who have demonstrated exceptional service above and beyond the call of duty. The award is not limited to a single recipient, and the College’s Alumni Association encourages the nomination of more than one person when teamwork was the key element in their success. The deadline for nominations is March 4.

Awards will be presented in the categories of Outstanding Police Officer, Firefighter, Emergency Medical Technician, Service to Community and Community Spirit. Selection criteria will be based upon a nomination process with candidates demonstrating exceptional service related to dedication, ingenuity, bravery, special skills and/or to the community over a sustained period of time.

Admission to the celebration is free and the public is encouraged to attend, however, reservations are required. For more information about the celebration or the nomination process, call 1-800-GO-OWENS, ext. 7410.
