1st Annual Waterway Guardian Awards Presented by the Virginia Eastern Shorekeeper

The Virginia Eastern Shorekeeper is very excited to announce our 1st Annual Waterway Guardian Awards. Recipients will be recognized at the Shorekeeper’s annual Clamboree on August 18, 2012
“The intent of these awards is to recognize groups, agencies, and individuals who have made significant contributions toward clean water on the Eastern Shore of Virginia,” said John Ordeman, President of the Virginia Eastern Shorekeeper organization. “We felt it was time to shine a light on those whose local work and actions have been a positive force for helping preserve, protect, and restore our creeks, bays, and other precious natural resources."
There are three categories of awards: individuals and nongovernmental organizations; government agencies and/or elected or appointed government officials; and commercial enterprises. All nominees/recipients must live in or work on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and there may be multiple award recipients in each category.
The Shorekeeper organization invites anyone to make a nomination, which must be done using our nominating form (click this link to go to the form).
The deadline for submitting a nomination is July 1, 2012.
