Hall of Fame

Central Ohio Senior Citizens Hall of Fame

The Central Ohio Senior Citizens Hall of Fame is an annual event that recognizes older adult volunteers for service to their communities. Nominees are evaluated for their significant contributions to the community after reaching the age of 60.  Those selected for induction are role models for leading vibrant, meaningful lives and enriching the quality of life for others. Their compelling stories demonstrate lifelong commitments to causes, organizations and communities.

Inductees are recognized at the annual Hall of Fame ceremony and receive a Hall of Fame lapel pin, a framed portrait from a professional photographer, and personal recognition on stage from one of their county commissioners.  All inductees are invited to attend a catered reception with family and friends as part of their celebration.

The legacy of the Hall of Fame is to preserve and foster an appreciation for those remarkable individuals who helped to shape the future of our communities. More than 450 individuals have been inducted in the Central Ohio Senior Citizens Hall of Fame since 1975.

Any individual or organization may nominate a resident of Delaware, Fairfield, Fayette, Franklin, Licking, Madison, Pickaway or Union County. Nominees must be 60 years of age or older and a legal resident of Ohio for the past five years or longer.  A married couple may be nominated for one award if both have been equally involved in the same activities and both meet the eligibility criteria.
