Person of the Year
The WTTC Baltimore annually nominates and honors a “Person of The Year”. The criteria for this award was created by Virginia M. Young, our belated and much respected member, who was herself a subsequent recipient of the award. Nomination and consideration shall be given to any active member who is a leader, and has given unselfishly of her or himself without personal gain or recognition. Consideration will not only be given to the work accomplished within the framework of the Club, but also to the work the individual may be doing outside the Club, which would indicate the type of citizen the transportation industry has. Involvement in other transportation related organizations to promote the industry in general, energy and time dedicated to community and service activities, as well as extending a hand in friendship to those in need, whether it be advice, council, assistance in locating employment, or just saying a kind and encouraging word, are all characteristics of nominees and recipients of this prestigious award.
