The Cobb Chamber of Commerce is accepting nominations for its 2022 Citizen of the Year Awards that are presented by its nine area councils.
That includes the East Cobb Area Council, which unveils its award Nov. 10, in conjunction with community civic clubs and local business associations.
Nominees are those individuals who have had a significant influence on their community. They can come from business, civic and community organizations, the realms of education, athletics, the arts, religion, recreation and others.
According to the Chamber, “these outstanding citizens are chosen for their definable, exceptional deeds, with which he or she has made their community a better place to live.”
Last year’s East Cobb Citizen of the Year was former Cobb commissioner Bob Ott. Other recent recipients include the late U.S. Sen Johnny Isakson, Futren Hospitality president and CEO Mitch Rhoden and Simple Needs GA founder Brenda Rhodes.
Nominations are being accepted through Monday, Oct. 3 and can be submitted by clicking here.
