Community Builder Awards
This award recognizes one FunTeam volunteer who has demonstrated the principles of FunTeam Alberta in their community for a successful tenure of at least 10 seasons. The Community Builder Award was created to recognize the volunteers that have displayed a deep dedication for maintaining FunTeam Alberta programming in their community
Nomination Criteria
FunTeam Alberta's success is primarily attributable to our chief asset: the volunteers. Without these hardworking, dedicated individuals, FunTeam would not be able to achieve its mandate of low-cost, family oriented sporting opportunities. This is our opportunity to pause and thank those who have displayed immeasurable dedication to our organization, their FunTeam group and their community.
Each year a soapstone carving depicting FunTeam Alberta's core principles will be awarded to a volunteer who has displayed a long standing impact to their community. Nominations will be accepted from any FunTeam Alberta member and the award is presented annually to the chosen nominee.
