Greater Sudbury’s community builders have another reason to strive.

Northern Life president Michael Atkins launched the Community Builders Awards of Excellence program at Science North’s Inco Cavern Dec. 4. The awards program was conceived during deliberations over what Northern Life could do to celebrate its 30th anniversary.

“It didn’t take us long to determine we wanted to honour the fantastic spirit of Sudbury,” Atkins explained. “For 30 years we have watched and participated in this community’s constant renewal and growth.”

The first annual awards ceremony is scheduled for April 7, 2004. Awards of Excellence will honour individuals and organizations in seven categories: Arts, Education, Environment, Sports and Recreation, Economic Development, Health Care and the Hall of Fame. Nomination forms are available from Bonnie Timm, by phone at 673-5667 or by e-mail at bonnie@northernlife.ca., and online at www.cbawards.ca,
