This will be the 53rd recipient!

Nominations open July 15th and close at 5:00 pm September 20th.

The oldest and most distinguished award given by the Chamber, the Flathead Legacy Award (formerly Great Chief Award), honors civic and volunteer spirit that spans a lifetime and creates a legacy for the community. In 2021, for the 50th anniversary of the award, the Kalispell Chamber renamed this prestigious award to better reflect its meaning and the recipients’ past and future impact on the greater Kalispell community through business, personal commitment, and service to others. 

The selection committee will consist of representatives of the Kalispell Chamber and past Flathead Legacy Award winners. The selection committee reserves the right to reject incomplete nomination forms and its selection is final.
