STAR Awards Recognition Program

Honoring Somerset County's Outstanding Volunteers
Thursday, April 14, 2005 from 7 to 8:30 p.m.
         


Somerset County United Way and the Courier News will honor Somerset County’s outstanding volunteers at the 15th annual STAR Awards event on Thursday, April 14, 2005 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in the Edward Nash Theatre at Raritan Valley Community College in North Branch.

 

Anyone in the community is invited to recognize volunteers for their accomplishments during 2004 by nominating them for a STAR Award or a Christian T. Nielsen Award.

STAR Awards. STAR is an acronym for Sharing Time And Resources and also describes the role of volunteers in their communities.

STAR Awards does not name winners, recognizing that it's our entire community that wins thanks to the generosity of local volunteers. Instead, we invite everyone nominated by the community to come and be celebrated and thanked.

Nominate a Volunteer for the 2005 STAR Awards today!
