Volunteer Recognition Ceremony

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden hosts the Volunteer of the Year Recognition Ceremony on May 19 at the Community Activity Center (Little Italy Restaurant and Catering Center) on Clay Kaserne. 

The annual Volunteer Recognition Ceremony identifies the outstanding contributions of volunteers in U.S.  Army Garrison Wiesbaden and distinguishes those volunteers who have contributed innovative and exemplary service.

The deadline for all Volunteer of the Year nominations is April 8, 2022. To view and download the Volunteer of the Year Nomination Form CLICK HERE.

These can be dropped off at Army Community Service in Building 7790 in Hainerberg Housing or submitted by email by CLICKING HERE. 

The volunteer service for those nominated for the Volunteer of the Year must have been performed between April 1, 2021, and March 31, 2022. While the Volunteer Recognition Ceremony recognizes all volunteers, regardless of their registration in the Volunteer Management Information System, those volunteers who are nominated must be registered in VMIS and have their volunteer hours submitted and certified. Volunteers can self-register and submit their hours in VMIS by going to https://vmis.armyfamilywebportal.com or they can be registered as a “non-user” by their Organizational Point of Contact. Regardless of nomination status, VMIS registration and logging hours is highly encouraged.

This year we will also recognize the Category I, II, III, IV organizations with the highest number of VMIS certified hours during the period between April 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022.

This year's theme is "We Salute You: Shining a light on the people and causes that inspire us to serve."
