Grose to receive Carnegie Medal Sunday

An award ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 2 honoring Waterville resident Dalton Grose.
Grose will be presented with the Carnegie Medal for Heroism at 1 p.m. at the Waterville Event Center.
There will be a short program, featuring the events which led him to saving the life of a man in September of 2023 and thus being selected to receive this highest of honors.
Waterville Mayor Bill Conlin will preside over the event, which will also include information about the Hero Fund and the Carnegie Medal, how Grose was selected, the reading of the official citation, presentation of the medal, and remarks from Grose.
This event is open to the public and will begin with a social hour starting at noon followed by the program.
