AWS Call For Nominations

- 4/29/2009
Miami, FL - In search of the super stars of welding, the American Welding Society (AWS) is issuing a call for entries in the 7th Annual Image of Welding Awards Program. This is the industry's top awards competition saluting the year's most outstanding public initiatives and programs that promote the image of welding. The entry deadline is July 10, 2009.

Awards are issued in seven categories. All individuals, organizations and groups may be nominated for multiple categories. Self nominations are also welcome. Winners will be honored at the Image of Welding Awards Ceremony to be held during the FABTECH International and AWS Welding Show, November 15-18, 2009, at McCormick Place in Chicago, IL.

The Image of Welding Awards Program recognizes outstanding achievement in the following categories:
  • Individual
  • Section (AWS local chapter)
  • Large business (200 or more employees)
  • Distributor (welding products)
  • Educator (welding teacher at an institution, facility, etc.)
  • Educational facility (any organization that conducts welding education or training)
“The Image of Welding Award is our special way to honor the men, women and companies that demonstrate superior contributions and commitment to the welding industry,” says Samuel Gentry, executive director, American Welding Society Foundation. “The AWS strives to encourage young adults to join the welding field and these award winners are prime examples of what can be achieved. They are the best in the industry.”

I encourage GAWDA members to nominate colleagues, customers or their own companies for these awards. Sutton-Garten Company received the distributor category award in 2007, and it is a very nice recognition.
