Hutchinson is full of people doing great things, and these people help make Hutchinson the wonderful community that it is. The Hutchinson Chamber and the Hutchinson Jaycees want to make sure we recognize those people in our community that are taking their time to make a difference. Every year at the Chamber’s Annual Banquet we honor a few of these people, but we need you to help make it happen. You, and other people from the community, have the opportunity to nominate the people that deserve these awards. The awards that will be given this year are: Business Person of the Year, Volunteer of the Year, Ag Person of the Year, Teacher of the Year, and Young Leader of the Year (under 35 years of age). This year we have made the nomination form even easier to complete. The form is available below and can be returned at the Chamber office or emailed to Melissa.
