2012 Winners will be online soon!

For the past twenty years, the Alabama Rural Water Association has offered an opportunity for outstanding employees and individual achievers to be recognized through their Annual Awards Program. The March, 2012, Awards Program is no exception.

There are many employees, board members, office employees and others who have dedicated their careers to the water and wastewater industry.

They have demonstrated exemplary performance in their positions. In many cases, their hard work and dedication has contributed significantly to the success of the water or wastewater utility.

Why not take a moment to say thank you! There's no better way to reward a deserving individual than to nominate he/she for outstanding performance.

During the Association's 21st Annual Awards Luncheon at least five individuals could be recognized. It could be you, your co-workers, a board member, or other individuals you know. The ceremony was held in Montgomery, Alabama at the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel & Spa at the Convention Center Wednesday, March 14, 2012 at 11:30 a.m.

A Nominating Committee was established to encourage nomination submissions. Stop for a moment and take the time to complete the Nomination Application. Submit the Application, narrative stating why this individual should be nominated together with three letters of recommendation in support of your nominee to the ARWA by January 31, 2012. Judges will meet in February to select the winners. The winners will be announced in March during the Awards Ceremony.

If you have questions, call the ARWA or visit the ARWA website at www.alruralwater.com.
