Romulus residents have only until tomorrow, Dec. 15, to nominate a candidate as the 37th Annual Person of the Year.
A committee named by the Greater Romulus Chamber of Commerce will review the nominations and announce their selection in January. An award ceremony will take place honoring the awardee in the spring of 2024, officials said.
Criteria for nominations require that those suggested for the honor are individuals who have made significant contributions to Romulus and city residents. A biographical synopsis should be provided stating reasons the nominee should be honored as the Person of the Year.
The deadline to submit nominations is Dec.15. Anything postmarked and/or received after that date will not be accepted. The nomination form can be filled out online or can be mailed, emailed or dropped off at the Chamber of Commerce office, 11189 Shook Road, Suite 200, Romulus, MI 48174. Nomination forms are available at the office. For more information, contact admin@romuluschamber.org.
Nominations can be made by anyone. The person submitting a nominee must submit their telephone number or email address, so chamber officials can contact them. The nominee does not have to be a resident of Romulus but must have made a significant contribution to the community, officials stressed.
