Crystal Awards: Nominate a Dedicated Community Volunteer

Do you know a dedicated volunteer, someone who devotes a great deal of time and energy to making Sun Lakes a better place in which to live?

The Crystal Award program started in 2010 and recognizes those who make our community a better place to live. To date, over 100 outstanding volunteers have been honored. Each year a committee of previous awardees chooses new honorees from each of the three Sun Lakes communities.

The past recipients include people who have served their HOAs on the board or committees; people who have stepped up in service organizations like Neighbors Who Care, Rotary, and Lions Club; people who have volunteered to educate and entertain us through organizations like New Adventures in Learning or Sun Lakes Community Theatre; people who serve their community churches; and people who are leaders of organized community activities like golf leagues, tennis tournaments, card and game groups, travel and hiking outings, and various other clubs.

Consider nominating a dedicated community volunteer for a Crystal Award. Nomination forms are available at each of the three HOA reception desks and are online at each of the HOA websites. Anyone may nominate a member who lives in Sun Lakes Country Club, Cottonwood Palo Verde, and IronOaks.

Recipients will be honored at a banquet at Cottonwood Country Club on March 16, 2025.

So, take a look around your community and remember someone who goes above and beyond to serve others, and honor that person through your nomination. Nominations are due at the beginning of December.
