7 over Seventy Awards
Celebrating 10 years of honoring leaders and change-makers in Forsyth County!
Senior Services is proud to continue to plan and host the annual 7 over Seventy Awards as we celebrate 10 years of honoring older adults who have made a significant impact on Forsyth County! Every year, the community is invited to submit nominations for consideration, which will go through a thorough review process by the selection committee. Past honorees represent a wonderfully diverse swath of people who share one thing in common—a love for their community.
2025 NOMINATIONS OPENING SOON!
Do you know an older adult who has made a positive impact through community service, civic and social engagement, and/or career accomplishments? Nominate them for the 10th annual 7 over Seventy Awards!
