The Caledon Walk of Fame

Inductees
Criteria
Nomination
Form
The Caledon Walk of Fame was initiated in
1999 for the purpose of honouring local Caledon citizens, both past and
present. These individuals have made significant contributions to the quality
of life, not only for the residents of Caledon, but to a wider community.
The Town of Caledon Walk of Fame is
situated at the front entrance of the Trans Canada Trail Pavilion, on the
west side of Airport Road in Caledon East. A stone is placed in honour of
each recipient during a formal Walk of Fame ceremony, held in conjunction
with the annual Town of Caledon Fall Fest.
Only one nominee/group will be chosen for
induction each year, and will be subject to approval by the Members of
Council for the Town of Caledon. The frequency of the event will also be
dependent upon the availability of nominees.
