Governor announces Youth Awards For Excellence 2020 | THE DAILY HERALD

 

HARBOUR VIEW–Governor Eugene Holiday announced on Sunday the Governor’s Youth Awards For Excellence Programme, which will honour youth excelling in a number of areas.

  The programme was designed to recognise youths ages 13-19 who have performed above and beyond and excelled in specific fields in the community. The categories for which young persons will be recognised are Education; Sports; Arts; Environmental Protection; and Community Service.

  The Governor’s Youth Awards for Excellence will be awarded to youths who have attained a level of excellence in the selected fields greater than that achieved by others or whose performance has been so exceptional that these achievements have identified this youth as being clearly outstanding from others, it was stated in a press release.

  Winners will receive their Youth Awards for Excellence at the Award Ceremony during the King’s Day Reception on April 24, 2020. Selected nominees, their parents and their nominators will be invited to attend the Awards Ceremony.  

  Holiday considers this important and encourages young people to develop the qualities required to take an active and constructive role in St. Maarten. “The Governor believes that cultivating an attitude of excellence is instrumental to developing such qualities.”

  Educational institutions, sports organisations, creative industries, environmental organisations, youth organisations, faith-based organisations, service clubs, community organisations or others who know a young person who deserves to be recognised for their outstanding achievements are requested to submit nominations starting March 9, using the nomination forms.

  Nominations must contain details and examples with supporting documentation of the achievements and activities of the nominated youth, as well as evidence of compliance with eligibility, general and specific criteria established in the award guidelines.

  Winners will be selected based on recommendations by an evaluation committee comprising a multi-disciplinary panel of professionals: Oldine Bryson-Pantophlet (Chairperson), Cassandra Janssen (Secretary), Dr. Rolinda Carter, Maikel Cornet, Clara Reyes, Rueben Thompson and Fabiana Vanterpool-Arnell.

  Persons and organisations are requested to submit typed nominations electronically via the nomination form no later than 11:59pm March 31. For further details on the nomination process, see the Governor of St. Maarten website
