WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The League of Women Voters of Williamstown (LWV-W) is seeking nominations for its 2010 Williamstown town employee award.

Nominees should be employees of the Town of Williamstown who have provided outstanding service to the Williamstown community – duty above and beyond what is expected of them. This service can have been performed during the past year or in previous years. It can have been a single exceptional act or have been spread over several years.

To show appreciation for the work required to keep the town running smoothly, in 2001 LWV-W established the award to recognize an outstanding town employee. The award is presented at a League event, and the name of the recipient is announced at the annual Williamstown Town Meeting.

All employees of the Town of Williamstown are eligible, from snowplow drivers to librarians, cemetery workers, policemen and women, town department heads, custodians, teachers, transfer station workers and firefighters to the town manager – anyone on the town payroll.

Nomination forms are available at the Milne Library and at Town Hall, or nominations can be sent to the League of Women Voters of Williamstown, P.O. Box 392, Williamstown, by April 7, 2010. Nominations should include a description of the exceptional service provided and the name and telephone number or email address of the person submitting the nomination. The name of winner will be announced at the annual Williamstown Town Meeting.
