Distinguished Service Award — Bill Owens
Bill Owens, CGR, CAPS, of Owens Construction in Powell, Ohio, was the winner of the Distinguished Service Award for his continued dedication to the council. Last year, Owens planned, funded and hosted an event that raised more than $3,000 for the Remodelors™ Council Bryan Patchan Scholarship.
In addition, Owens served as chairman of the council’s leadership development committee and worked on behalf of his local and state associations.
Public Relations Savvy Members
This year, the Remodelors™ Council also recognized for the first time council members who have promoted the council and the professionalism of the industry throughout the year by working with the press on a regular basis and for contributing to NAHB publications, including Nation’s Building News. More than 20 council members wrote articles for Nation’s Building News last year. The following were honored because of the number and popularity of the articles they contributed:
- Greg Miedema, CGR, CAPS, CGB, of Dakota Builders in Tucson, Ariz.
- Erik Anderson, CGR, CAPS, GMB, CGB, of Anderson-Moore Builders, Inc. in Winston-Salem, N.C.
- Michael Strong, CGR, of Brothers Strong in Houston
Who Will Be the Next Remodelor™ of the Month?
The Remodelor™ of the Month (this link is accessible to Remodelors™ Council members only) award program is underway. Don't miss your opportunity to be named the Remodelor™ of the Month.
The program groups local councils from different states into designated months. There will be two “wild card” months that will allow the council’s members-at-large to participate in the program. A winner will be chosen each month and that winner will then be automatically included in the nominations for the Remodelor™ of the Year award.
This is a great opportunity for local councils and members to get involved and submit their “best of the best” members to compete with other councils. The national Remodelors™ Council will send out press releases and highlight each winner in ReNews, the Remodelors™ Council e-newsletter.
