The Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce honors outstanding members of the community at its annual Community Star Dinner and Dance. Residents of Park Ridge make nominations for the Community Star Awards and Lifetime Achievement Award. The nominees are judged on their efforts in going above and beyond their normal duties to help build a better community, as role models for others and working to make positive changes in the community.
