The ELITE Awards 2021 - Elevating the Landscape Industry through Excellence

The ELITE AwardsAfter a pandemic-related delay, The ELITE Awards were presented at an in-person reception on November 10, 2021 at Stonebrook Manor in Thornton, Colorado. The ELITE Awards recognize professionalism and innovation, as well as business practices and original projects. The cornerstone of the program is what ALCC has always recognized: professionalism, executing work to the highest possible standards and doing so with integrity. These commitments are the bedrock of ALCC's core values. In addition, this program also recognizes a company's commitment to sound business practices, the ability to innovate, to have a culture wherein employees can excel, to practice environmental stewardship, to treat customers well and to give back to the community.
