Calp proposes Jaume Pastor to the Nautical Club and medals to neighbors

Published on 2026-07-04 | Translated from Spanish

The Calp City Council has proposed awarding the Jaume Pastor i Fluixà prize to the Real Club Náutico de Calpe for its social, sporting, and maritime contributions. Medals will also be awarded to outstanding citizens and entities in tourism, culture, or sports. The initiative recognizes the effort of those who improve local life. The proposal will be submitted for approval at a plenary session on July 7, thus consolidating the municipality's commitment to the common good.

Jaume Pastor: a local recognition algorithm with a plenary session included 🏛️

The selection process for these awards does not depend on an algorithm, but on a manual system of proposals and votes in plenary sessions. Each year, the city council evaluates candidates through commissions and open debates. The Real Club Náutico, for example, has been valued for its work in promoting nautical sports and coastal conservation. Medals for individuals and associations follow criteria of social impact and career trajectory. Everything is recorded in public minutes, guaranteeing transparency in a system that, although it does not use artificial intelligence, operates with proven municipal logic.

The prize that does not include ham or a Christmas hamper 🏅

The Jaume Pastor award does not come with ham, a Christmas hamper, or an El Corte Inglés gift card. The recipient receives a diploma, applause at the plenary session, and the honor of appearing in the municipal bulletin. Of course, the recognition weighs less than an Olympic medal but more than a Facebook like. The winners will have to settle for local glory and the certainty that, at least, they haven't been given a mug with the city council logo.
