In 1997, the Boubonnais

Friendship Festival presented

the first Jerry Trudeau Volunteer of the Year award

to none other than Jerry

Trudeau.

The award was developed

to honor volunteers of the

Bourbonnais Friendship

Festival.  The intent is to

honor hard- working

volunteers who sacrifice

their time and energy to

ensure that a successful

Festival takes place each year.

Jerry Trudeau

It is meant to honor those who otherwise go without

recognition, and frequently prefer to remain in the

background.

Past Recipients

The Jerry Trudeau Volunteer of the year

award for 2009 was presented to

Jerry & Larry Forbes.
