Mandate and Purpose

The purpose of the Commemorative Awards Selection Panel is to determine recipients of the Order of Orillia Award and inductees into the Orillia Hall of Fame.  The Selection Panel operates at arm's length from Council to solicit nominees for these awards, and determine the manner of award and presentation. 

In other matters as directed by Council, the Selection Panel may act as an advisory group reporting to Council Committee.

The Selection Panel follows City Policy 1.3.1.5.

 Membership
The Selection Panel is comprised of five members: four eligible electors of the City of Orillia and one member who may be a local area resident.
 Order of Orillia - Nominations open until March 3, 2025!

Know a great volunteer?  Would you like to honour them for their work in the community?

The Order of Orillia is an award which provides recognition to the unsung hero; the people who have dedicated their lives to make a difference in the community and enrich the lives of others through volunteering.

Nominations for the Order of Orillia Award are now under review. All nominations received by March 3, 2025 will be considered and recipients selected for awards presentation at a meeting of Council to be announced.
