The Stanley Community Association and Martino’s Restaurant have joined together to create the “High Five Award.” This award will be given out monthly to a member of the community that has gone above and beyond to serve others and the area around them. We wanted to mirror the important traits that National Honor Society highlighted on the benches around town. It is important not only to recognize the traits that make Stanley great but also the individuals that enhance our city; people should be celebrated for their contribution therefore we have chosen 5 character traits that we would like to honor with this award. The traits include being supportive, trustworthy, nurturing, loyal and extraor- dinary in action. The winner of the 1st High Five Award is Tom Larson; he received 5 nominations for his work with the Independence Day Celebration. A nominator said “Tom spear headed this amazing event for our great little community. He loves helping with community stuu when he can and really cares about the direction we are all trying to take this community.” Another said “He has gone above and beyond in our community to make this a fantastic town!!” When presented with this award Tom echoed that he wouldn’t have been able to do it without the community co- ming together "It was the euort of many volunteers and sponsors to put this event together.”
