 What is Bath Citizen Involvement Day? Every year, the City of Bath and the Bath Community Development Office host Bath Citizen Involvement Day, now in its 12th year. Citizen Involvement Day is a celebration that offers non-profit organizations with programs that benefit Bath a chance to display their information to the public and get volunteers, and allows citizens to visit with participating organizations and learn about the great things they do.
Awards are presented for Citizen of the Year, Community Spirit, Project of the Year, Youth, and the Lifetime Spirit.
Citizen Involvement Day is part of Bath's Autumnfest which offers many children's activites, a craft show, merchant open houses, antique fire truck and trolley rides, and much more.
