Panora ChamberLetters are due tomorrow for those Panora area residents planning to nominate someone in the Panora community to be the recipient of this year’s Citizen of the Year Award.

The award is handed out each year during the Panorama Days Celebration.

Chaille Crandall, the executive director for Panorama Days, explains what she feels makes the ideal candidate for such an honor.

“I would say it is somebody that volunteers, obviously, and does things to support local businesses and community activities.”

Karen Sievers is Panora’s reigning Citizen of the Year after winning it in 2013.  Crandall says Sievers’ involvement is what made and her and what makes her such an outstanding figure for the Panora community.

“I actually just got to know Karen really well last year because it was my first year in the chamber.  She always has her hands in… everything.  It could be a lot, it could be a little but she’s always involved.”

Crandall says the Panora Chamber is looking for a similar community person for this year’s Citizen of the Year Award.  Nominations letters can be addressed to the chamber at P.O. Box 73 in Panora or dropped off at City Hall tomorrow.

The Citizen of the Year will be highlighted during the Panorama Days parade on Saturday, August 2nd.
