Do you know a volunteer who has made a significant contribution to College life? If so, the UCC Association would like to know by midnight on March 20, 2024.

The Harold A.D. Roberts Circle Award is given annually in recognition of substantial contributions or special service by members of the UCC community, either through short-term involvement or long-term commitment. It recognizes those who go above and beyond the call of duty to significantly improve the UCC Association and the College. 

This award complements the John D. Stevenson Award and expands the ability to recognize outstanding contributions to UCC. The 2023 recipients were Barry Hill ’62, Matt Flynn ’96,  Sarah D’Souza, Zachary Schwartz ’05, and Dr. Samantha Nutt.

Nominations are welcome from all members of the College community in written format. They should include information about the nature and time of the nominee's volunteer service and the reason for the nomination. Please click here to fill out the online nomination form.

All nominations will be reviewed by the awards committee and the recipient(s) will be selected by the Association Council. Nominations must be submitted by midnight on March 20, 2024.

Please join us for our annual Norval Maple Madness Open House on Sunday, March 24 from 10–12 p.m. or 1–3 p.m. 

All members of the UCC community are welcome to attend and tour the sugar bush, learn how trees are tapped, see sap boiled into syrup and even get a taste test. 

Back at Stephen House, we will have pancakes and sausages with real Norval maple syrup, plus an assortment of other goodies and refreshments.

At this time of year, our trails can be quite muddy and often slippery. Rubber or snow boots are recommended. Come dressed for the weather, and we suggest bringing towels or a change of clothes for the drive home. Dogs on leashes are welcome to join (but won’t have access to the indoors)

Click here to register or contact Amanda Vieira-Hasz in the Association Office at 416-488-1125, ext. 2038.

Parking information
There is limited parking on the Norval Campus. Please consider coordinating with fellow attendees to share rides and reduce the number of vehicles on the grassy area. Additionally, we recommend using vehicles with four-wheel drive if available.

Directions
Take Highway 401 west to Winston Churchill Boulevard. Follow Winston Churchill Boulevard north and go through the Village of Norval. Continue straight ahead. The entrance to the Norval property is on your left, 1.2 km north of the village stoplight. The drive takes about 50 minutes from UCC in light traffic.
