The awards event, formerly known as the Pride of Strathcona Awards, was cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic but the county decided to go virtual this year.
“We did have a few applications from last year that were forwarded to this year, however, due to the pandemic and how residents and groups have stepped up to help the community, there were more applications received this year as opposed to previous years,” explained Angie McConnell, a county communications specialist. “We are so happy with the response to the call for nominations and the willingness of the community to recognize these efforts.”
EDMONTON The COVID-19 pandemic won’t stop Barb Henderson or Sherwood Park small business owners from spreading love this Valentine’s Day weekend. Henderson is the organizer behind a heart hunt where families can safely tour the hamlet from the comfort and safety of their vehicles. “It’s a family oriented, socially-distanced fun day, said Henderson, the event organizer. “There’s a word scramble, there’s going to be a single word at every location that you write down on the entry form as well as counting the hearts. So each location has a random number of hearts and you put that in your draw and at the end there are prizes galore.”
