This recognition is our way of acknowledging one of our own citizens who has gone above and beyond in service, kindness, and dedication to the Whitesville community.
If you know of a Whitesville Citizen who deserves to be recognized for their contributions, we invite you to nominate them. Please submit a letter detailing what this person has done for our community and why you believe they should be chosen for this honor.
All nomination letters must be received by May 12th.
