Coral Springs, FL – On Wednesday, April 21st, the City of Coral Springs honored a group of volunteers by awarding them with the Lynne Johnson Award in City Hall Commission Chambers.

Of the award winners, Dale Pazdra, Assistant City Manager of People, Culture and Wellness, said, “Our city has the most exceptional group of volunteers who go above and beyond to voluntarily serve our residents. Most importantly, these individuals make a difference in the lives of many and are committed to enhancing the city in many ways. We honor, thank and recognize our volunteers for their contributions these last two years.”

The following awards were named after Lynne Johnson in 2009 in memory of her dedicated volunteer service to the City of Coral Springs. The city will continue to celebrate volunteers annually with the receipt of the Lynne Johnson Award and applications will once again be available next year.

Appreciative of their influence in our city, Mayor Scott Brook said, “Our volunteers have added so much value to our city operations and we could never be the premier city to live, work and raise a family without their efforts and contributions.
