Nominations are still being accepted for the Tire Industry Hall of Fame induction Class of 2013, but the deadline is fast approaching.
The Hall of Fame is open to individuals in the tire industry, including manufacturers, inventors, publishers, equipment suppliers, tire association executives, tire dealers, tire and rubber recyclers and retreaders. Hall of Fame induction may be awarded posthumously.
Inductees are chosen based on their contributions of new ideas, practices and/or innovations that promote the health and well-being of the tire industry; their exemplary and distinguished service in the tire industry; and the respect of their peers. Contributions in civic, cultural, educational or charitable endeavors will be considered, but are not a primary consideration as attributes for selection.
The deadline for nominations for the Tire Industry Hall of Fame is Friday, July 5, at 5 p.m. ET. A nomination form is available for download at www.tireindustry.org or by emailing [email protected] or calling Donna Sage at 301-430-7280, ext. 102.
The Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will take place on Monday, Nov. 4, as part of TIA’s Tire Industry Honors event, which takes place prior to the Global Tire Expo Powered by TIA. The combined GTE/SEMA Show runs Nov. 5-8 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
