The City of Port Moody is calling for nominations for the 2016 Civic Awards in the following categories: Peter Hulbert Accessibility Award; Arts Award; Environmental Award; Heritage Award; and Sports Display Award. The deadline for nominations is September 30.

“We have amazing individuals, groups and companies whose contributions ensure that Port Moody remains the best place to live, work and play,” said Mayor Mike Clay. “Our awards recognize and highlight their activities and I encourage residents to take this opportunity to nominate those that rise above and inspire in the area of sports, heritage, environmental leadership, arts or accessibility.”

Award categories:

  • The Peter Hulbert Accessibility Award honours an individual, business, community group, educator, or government agency that goes above and beyond expectations in removing barriers for individuals with disabilities.
  • The Arts Award celebrates an individual, organization or business that significantly contributes to, and participates in, the artistic/cultural life of Port Moody. 
  • The Environmental Award is given to an individual, organization or business that advances environmental preservation and awareness here in the City of Port Moody.

  • The Sports Display Award is presented to local athletes, teams or “builders” (e.g. coaches, officials, sports medicine practitioners, etc.) who are positive role models and encourage young people to get involved in sports and lead healthy lifestyles.
