Who is your hero??
We are asking our readers to nominate people for our first “Lake County Hero” feature.
Not all heroes wear capes, and we believe an overwhelming majority of the real heroes in our lives clad themselves in nothing more grand than cloaks of anonymity.
First, we’ll note that real heroes take on many shapes and sizes, and they’re usually a far cry from the perfectly sculpted action figures we grew up watching in the movies. Instead, in our eyes, our true heroes are many of the regular people we see doing regular things every day.
It might be the home health care worker providing much-needed companionship for our senior citizens, the firefighter or police officer putting his or her life on the line to keep the rest of us safe, or the Little League coach donating his time on behalf of our kids (while putting up with everything else that entails).
Here’s how to nominate: Just send an email to [email protected] and tell us who you’d like to nominate, and, most importantly, why. (Name only submissions are not accepted)
Our panel will select the finalist and will choose 1 winner to recieve a $500 prize.
