CYO Volunteer Awards
The CYO recognizes the hard work of its volunteers each year at the Annual Volunteer Awards Ceremony. The event is held the first Tuesday of May at Ss. Peter and Paul Cathedral and honors the recipients of the Spirit of Youth Award, Monsignor Busald Award and St. John Bosco Medal. The Spirit of Youth Award is presented to teens who have exhibited a commitment to volunteerism and perform outstanding service within the parish for those in need in the larger community.
The Monsignor Busald Award and St. John Bosco Medal recognizes adults who have given sustained service to the youth of a particular parish through CYO and youth ministry programs. The St. John Bosco Medal is the highest honor bestowed upon a volunteer by the CYO and is designed to honor those who have truly contributed to the physical, psychological and social development of youth.
