Berkshire Chamber Seeks Nominations for Quinn Award03:44PM / Monday, October 19, 2009
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Berkshire Chamber of Commerce is currently accepting nominations for the 2009 Esther Quinn Award in memory of Esther Quinn, former Chamber volunteer and advocate for volunteer efforts. The award, now in its ninth year, will be presented at the chamber's annual meeting on Dec. 11 at the Crowne Plaza.
Esther Quinn died in 1998, cutting short a distinguished real estate career that began in 1972. She was a member of the Berkshire County Board of Realtors for more than 20 years and was the top Century 21 agent in all of Western Massachusetts several times.
Quinn was not only recognized for her professional endeavors, but also for her tireless volunteer contributions throughout Berkshire County. Her help in bringing people together to strengthen and serve the community, to which she gave much of her spare time, was evident in her volunteerism throughout the region.
The first award was given in 1999 to William Wilson, former president and CEO of the Berkshire Visitors Bureau. Past award recipients include: 2000, David Klausmeyer; 2001, Dr. Gary Lamoureaux; 2002, Louann Harvey; 2003, Mick Callahan; 2004, Robert Proskin; 2005, Richard Whitehead; 2006, Ellen Ruberto; 2007, Williams Hines Sr., and 2008, Jerry Burke.
The successful candidate is any person who is a member of the Berkshire community, who has been involved in several volunteer efforts, is a people person, and with his or her enthusiasm, empathy and effort, continues to make the Berkshires a better place in which to live and work.
Nomination forms are available at the Chamber at 75 North St., Suite 360, or by logging onto www.berkshirechamber.com. To request forms via fax, call Christine Hoyt at 413-499-4000, Ext. 26, or for e-mail forms, choyt@berkshirechamber.com.
Nomination forms must be returned no later than 4 on Monday, Nov. 9. |
