OAKtoberfest Neighbor Awards 2012

As part of the upcoming RNeighbors Oaktoberfest fundraiser, we will be recognizing Rochester neighbors whose efforts in our community strive to meet the mission of RNeighbors,  “to create sustainable neighborhood networks that promote a vibrant, healthy, and livable community.”

We will be giving four awards and are looking for your nominations of neighbors you feel should be honored in these categories.

1.       Green Initiative Award

Neighbor or group who spearheaded and developed green initiatives within your neighborhood, as a means to make Rochester a more environmentally sustainable place to live.

2.       Green Thumb Award

Neighbor or group who has improved their neighborhood, yard, or local community park the most.

3.       Vibrant Neighbor Award

Neighbor or group who has spearheaded and developed artistic venues, activities, and events within the community.

4.       Unique and Spectacular Award

Neighbor or group who has organized innovative and unique ways for their neighborhood or local community to socialize and be neighborly with one another.

Nomination is simple. Be creative! Please just write a 3-4 sentence description convincing us why a neighbor deserves recognition and email it by September 21. In addition to honoring award winners at our October 5 OAKtoberfest event, we will post winners and descriptions on our website.
