LEWISTON – Mayor Lionel C. Guay Jr. and the Lewiston Youth Advisory Council are reminding residents that January nominations for the Mayor’s Citation of Excellence are due Jan. 13.

Relatives, friends, teachers, coaches and other members of the public may submit a one-page nomination of a local middle school or high school student for an action or accomplishment deemed as “extraordinary” or “above and beyond.”

The action or accomplishment referred to must have occurred within the last two months, and the nominated youth must reside in Lewiston.

Following the selection, the mayor will present the citation to the youth during the school day in the latter part of the month. Nominations may be sent to Guay at 27 Pine St., Lewiston, ME 04240, or e-mail them to [email protected].
