Washington Women in Trades Program
After much discussion about whether to present awards if we couldn't gather to celebrate at the Dream Big Dinner, it was mentioned that the 2020 tradeswoman has worked in the face of difficulty from the beginning of this pandemic, and if ANYONE deserves an honor, she does. It's with this concept in our hearts that we invite you to nominate someone for the 2020 Awards.
Nominations have been EXTENDED - The last day to submit your nomination is November 30, 2020.
