Volunteer of the Year
The Volunteer of the Year award recognizes the individual who has given selfless service to the Bisons organization over a number of years, or in exceptional cases, over a single outstanding year. This honour is meant for the volunteer who has worked tirelessly behind the scenes without expectation of sponsorship benefit or financial reward. It celebrates those whose time, effort, and dedication help keep the program running and whose impact is felt throughout the organization.
