MECHANICSVILLE, VA — The National Auto Body Council (NABC) is seeking the ‘unsung heroes’ of the collision repair industry. And, in doing so, is announcing that the Sept. 15, 2005 deadline for PRIDE Award Nominations is rapidly approaching.

“I want to thank everyone who has already sent in nominations for this year’s PRIDE Awards,” said Janet Chaney, 2005 PRIDE Award Committee Chair. “However, we are reaching out to the industry again to make sure nobody is missed who deserves this humanitarian award.”

NABC continually works to improve the image of the collision repair industry. The PRIDE Award embraces the Council’s spirit. This award recognizes those in the industry for what extraordinary events they do in life.

“NABC makes it easy to nominate someone,” continued Chaney. “A downloadable version of the nomination form is available on the Council’s website. There is also a version that can be completed and submitted online.

“If you think of someone that should be nominated and you don’t have the time to place the nomination, please call the NABC office, 1.888.667.7433, or myself, 1.480.720.2565. You will be contacted by a PRIDE Award committee person who will collect your information and enter your nomination.”

Winners will be notified by October 15, 2005. In conjunction with NACE, the award presentations will take place at the Industry Night Of Achievement in Las Vegas on Nov. 2.

“We know that there are many deserving people within our industry,” Chaney concluded. “Many of them do good for its own sake, and do not need, nor necessarily want recognition for their selfless acts. It is up to us to make sure they are acknowledged and thanked. We are looking for your help. There are many unsung heroes in our industry, from technicians to CEO’s. Please join us in creating pride in our industry and in ourselves.”
