Each year the Kenton County Pioneer Awards recognize residents of Kenton County who have a record of outstanding service to the community and exemplify the highest standards of personal integrity. The Pioneer Awards honor those who demonstrate servant leadership combined with awareness of the needs of our fellow residents.

Nominations are due by Friday, Feb. 16. A committee, composed of community leaders, will review the nominations, identify those deserving individuals and submit their names to the Kenton County Fiscal Court.

Honorees will be announced March 19.

Once approved, honorees will be recognized at a Kenton County Fiscal Court meeting, in print and on social media.

Nominations can be made on the Kenton County website at bit.ly/kcpioneeraward2024. Current elected officials are not eligible for recognition.

Since 2018, there have been 25 Pioneer Award honorees. To learn more about previous honorees, visit the Kenton County website: bit.ly/kcpioneerawardhonorees
