City of Southlake Volunteer Awards

The City of Southlake created these special awards in the Spring of 2016 to recognize those volunteers who give a considerable amount of time to our community. We recognize that many of the activities, services, and events that we put on throughout the year are successful in large part because of the quality of service provided by this group of dedicated individuals. They are truly an inspiration to us all, and we thank them for their generous service.

Service Medal

This award was introduced at the 2016 Volunteer Appreciation Event in an effort to show special recognition to volunteers contributing the highest hours within a 12 consecutive month period. The medal is presented to one Junior and one Adult volunteer at the Volunteer Appreciation Event each year to honor their committed service to the City of Southlake. All medal winners will be notified in April prior to the event.
