With close to 100 people in attendance, awards were presented to the 12 boards and commissions that serve the City of Norcross. Upon presentation of the awards, the respective chairman or representative of each board or commission had the opportunity to speak and recognize team members.

"Behind every successful city, there will be a network of volunteer citizens who care deeply about the city where they live, work and play and who are prepared to stand up and be counted," said Councilmember Levy. "We are grateful for all those who serve on the City of Norcross' various boards and commissions. We would not be 'a place to imagine' without their hard work and dedication."
