CALL FOR NOMINATIONS
HISTORIC PRESERVATION AWARDS
The Jefferson County Historical
Society seeks project nominations from all over Jefferson County for Historic
Preservation Awards to be presented at our Founders' Day Celebration on April
13, 2008. These prestigious awards honor the efforts of individuals and
organizations to preserve and restore original structures and traditions that
form the unique historic fabric of our county.
The award categories include the Mary P. Johnson Award for historic structure
projects that meet the Secretary of the Interior's standards of restoration, as
well as Certificates of Appreciation for a variety of appropriate and
sympathetic preservation and restoration projects not limited to physical
structures.
Any project may be worthy of an award and anyone may nominate a project or
projects for consideration. All nominations will be reviewed by the JCHS Awards
Committee. Nominations of projects of particular merit will be studied
extensively. Tell us about the preservation projects you see underway in our
community that contribute to our rich historical environment.
Please submit a completed nomination form and other
documentation by February 13, 2008. Include photographs, if possible. Call the
JCHS office (385-1003) to suggest other meritorious projects for potential
awards.
