Bedford Get Together is a private, non-profit organization devoted to creating opportunities for all current and future community members to enhance their awareness, open-mindedness and respect.
As a part of this mission, we annually recognize those who work tirelessly within the greater Bedford community to achieve our vision: a community united through understanding, trust, kindness and respect. For 2024, we will accept nominations for awards in the following categories:
|
A selection committee named by the Board of Directors of Bedford Get Together will review nominations. Self-nominations are permissible, as well as nominations for more than one category. However, multiple nominations for an entity will not influence the selection of finalists; i.e. this is not a popularity contest. Nominees should operate in the Bedford County area, and the efforts cited for recognition should be recent (2023-2024).
Those selected for recognition will be notified in late July 2024 and invited to Bedford Get Together’s awards celebration to be held in the fall at a place to be determined.
To nominate an organization or individual, please complete the nomination form below. You can also click HERE to download it and submit it no later than July 15, 2024 to [email protected]. If you prefer you can print it and mail to: Bedford Get Together, PO Box 1184, Bedford VA 24523. Please address questions via e-mail to Bedford Get Together.
Thank you for helping us publicly commend those who make Bedford a better place to live, work and play!
