Durham, N.C. – The Durham Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) invites community organizations to receive recognition for their outstanding work by applying for the Commissioners Community Circle Award.  The award is designed as a way for the BOCC to recognize community organizations and programs for the outstanding services they provide to the citizens of Durham. 

The Commissioners Community Circle Award, based upon simple selection criteria, is presented to organizations that exhibit excellence in the areas of productivity, creativity and commitment to citizens.  Recipients of the award have proven that the services they provide help to improve the lives of citizens and the overall enhancement of the Durham community.  Once a month, the BOCC presents a certificate of recognition to a selected organization during a Regular Session meeting. 

To receive an application and more information about the Commissioners Community Circle Award, contact Dawn D. Dudley, public information specialist for the Durham County Manager’s Office, at 919-560-0008 or via e-mail at ddudley@durhamcountync.gov.
