NHLA Receives Award of Excellence

  NHLA has received the national Award of Excellence for the category of events and fundraising from the International Society of Hotel Associations (ISHA) for our Great Chef Run 5K program. "We are so excited and appreciative to receive this prestigious award," states NHLA president Diane Gandy. "Our Great Chef Run team and sponsors do such an outstanding job each year with this event and it is such an honor to grant thousands and thousands of dollars in scholarship funding for hospitality students through this event." A big thank you to Donald Bowman for leading this event and the many committee members and volunteers who dedicate a great deal of time to the ongoing success of the Great Chef Run.
