THE AWARDS
In 1995 the founder of American Sweeper magazine, our editor Ranger Kidwell-Ross, began the tradition of recognizing outstanding individuals in the sweeping industry with an honor called the Award of Excellence in Power Sweeping. The award qualifications, which include more than just success in the sweeping industry, encompass time devoted to building professionalism in the industry and in assisting others involved in sweeping. Starting in 2006, WorldSweeper.com resumed this tradition. Here you may read about the recipients of this special Award. Award of Excellence in Power Sweeping
