Older Americans Month Awards

Commissioner John Kefalas, awardees LoAnne Forschmiedt and Winnie Hanson, nominees Bojanka Crivilescu and Ginger Haney, nominator Steve Conaway, and Commissioner Kristin Stephens.

Each year in May, the Larimer County Office on Aging honors two community members during our Older Americans Month Awards. The awards, honoring one Outstanding Senior Volunteer and one Outstanding Family Caregiver, are presented by the Larimer County Commissioners at a ceremony each May. Award winners are selected by the Office on Aging Advisory Council from nominations made by community members like you!

The Larimer County Office on Aging will host an awards ceremony on Tuesday, May 13th, 2025 honoring one outstanding senior volunteer and one outstanding family caregiver in our community, as part of the Answers on Aging Resource Fair. 

The deadline for 2025 nominations closed on March 15. Winners, nominees, and those who nominated them were honored at the Answers on Aging Fair on May 13. The event was held at The Ranch Events Complex (5280 Arena Cir, Loveland CO 80538).
