[OR_Archaeology] Heritage Excellence Award nominations due Jan 20

[Susan White]

Somewhere in communities all across the state there are examples of excellence for efforts on behalf of Oregon's heritage, and the Oregon Heritage Commission and State Historic Preservation Office wish to recognize those individuals, businesses and organizations for such outstanding efforts.
 
Nominations are encouraged for exceptional and meritorious work; special consideration is given to the development of new ideas, approaches and innovations in heritage-related activities. The Oregon Heritage Excellence Awards are also intended to honor those who have made the most from available resources and skills.
 
Award nominations should be postmarked no later than January 20. A complete nomination package, which includes an application and other supporting material, is available at www.oregonheritage.com (click on "2009 Heritage Awards" under the heading News and Events), or request that the package be mailed (see contact information below).
 
The 2009 Oregon Heritage Excellence Awards will be presented at the Northwest History and Heritage Extravaganza on April 17 in Portland by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department's Heritage Programs division.
 
The Northwest History and Heritage Extravaganza is a multi-organization gathering that includes the 2009 Oregon Heritage Conference, the Pacific Northwest History Conference and the annual meetings of the Northwest Archivists and the Northwest Oral History Association. The Extravaganza will have the theme of "Rendezvous 2009!" and will take place April 15-18. The conference hotel will be the Holiday Inn at the Portland International Airport, but activities will also take place at some of the Portland area's many historical and heritage resources. Conference
updates will be posted on the above listed website.
