Town Collects Nominations for Pride of Clarkstown Awards

Deadline to Submit is September 30, 2011

(New City, NY) - Each year, the Town of Clarkstown seeks nominations for the Pride of Clarkstown Awards.  The program is designed to recognize outstanding commercial properties, nominated by individuals and civic organizations for their efforts to beautify their properties and in turn the Town of Clarkstown.  The deadline for submission is September 30, 2011. 

A committee of volunteers separate nominations by various categories.  They visit every nominated site and meet many times to choose winners in each category.  The program is an incentive for other property owners to create even more attractive commercial locations in the Town. The following are the Pride of Clarkstown award categories:

• Community Projects
• Food/Hospitality
• Industrial
• Non-Profit Organization
• Professional Office
• Service Business
• Shopping Center / Retail
• Small Business

The committee will select the winners in November, who will be recognized at a Town Board meeting early next year.

Residents can find the application on the town website at www.town.clarkstown.ny.us and visit the Supervisor’s page.  For more information please call 639-2056 or email towncouncil@clarkstown.org
