Hometown Hero nominations underway
Butler County’s unsung heroes are about to receive some well-deserved recognition.
“Our first responders are amazing individuals, and we need to let them know that,” said Jack Cohen, governor of Rotary International District 7280. “They leave for their day and say goodbye to their family, and they don’t know if they’re coming home.”
With the help of Butler County’s nine Rotary Clubs, the 2024 Can-Am Police-Fire Games, Salute Home Loans and the Butler Eagle, Butler County’s first responders will be honored at a Hometown Hero Awards dinner Sept. 30 at Tesla BioHealing & MedBed Center on Route 8.
Nominations, made by family, friends and the public, for the event are taking place. The nominations will be collected by the Butler Eagle and distributed to Rotary clubs within the county based on the region where the first responders serve.
The nomination deadline is April 1. Nominations can be mailed to P.O. Box 271 Butler PA 16003 or online at form.butlereagle.com.
