‘How honored and humbled’: Herb Sutton makes history as city’s first-ever merit award recipient
A well-respected resident made history by receiving the city’s very first merit award on Monday night, adding a chapter to North Battleford’s legacy.
The City of North Battleford, along with various community members, gathered at the Chapel Gallery to celebrate Herb Sutton and his contributions to the city. Cheers and applause filled the room.
The merit award he received was not just a recognition of his achievements but also a significant step forward in fostering community improvement.
“I think the people who will receive this award in the future probably don’t do it with the idea that they’re going to earn an award. They do it because they’re passionate about it and think it’s the right thing to do,” said Sutton.
