Every year, Oxford County recognizes employees who have gone above and beyond to drive positive change within our organization and communities through the Awards of Excellence program. Please join us in congratulating the 2023 award recipients.

Nominated by their peers, these employees have gone above and beyond in demonstrating Oxford County's corporate values of Accountability and Integrity, Customer Service, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Innovation, Leadership, Sustainability, and Teamwork.
