First responders from Virginia State Police, police and fire and rescue personnel from Prince William County, Manassas, Manassas Park, and Quantico Marine Corps Base will be honored.
“This is the largest event we host during the year and the most rewarding, said Kelly Elliott, director of operations for the Prince William Chamber of Commerce.
This year, Jummy Olabanji, of WRC-TV will host the event that takes place from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Last year, more than 600 people attended the event.
A total of 145 first responders being honored at this year’s Valor Awards. Multiple awards honor brave men and women who have put their lives on the line to help others who were at risk.
Other awards honor those who worked together in a team, and those who have gone above and beyond the call of duty.
In addition, the Hillary Robinette Award will be given to a detective who solved a cold, or difficult case.
Each jurisdiction is asked to submit their nominees for the calendar year. A committee of volunteers from the business community.
This year’s committee chair is Rebecca Barnes, publisher of Prince William Living magazine.
All of the nominations are gathered and reviewed by the committee, which then makes selections based on the criteria.
