Rural Water Association of Utah Takes Home
National Award

National Rural Water Association is pleased to announce that the Rural Water Association of Utah won the Excellence in Newsletter award at NRWA’s Annual Tribute to Excellence Awards Ceremony held in Dallas, Texas on September 27.

This award is presented to state associations for outstanding and timely communications to their membership.  Newsletters prove to be a great way to reach members with upbeat information.  Additionally, many associations are converting their printed newsletters into electronic formats and can now convey the news via the internet for faster delivery.

The NRWA Awards in Excellence program was established to recognize the outstanding efforts of the Member State Affiliates, their staff, and special members of the rural water industry. 

The National Rural Water Association is a non-profit federation of State Rural Water Associations.  Its mission: to provide state associations with support services to meet the needs of their membership.  NRWA is America’s largest utility association with over 25,735 members.   Historically, NRWA’s state associations have trained over 55,000 water and wastewater system personnel each year for two decades.  They also provide over 100,000 on-site technical assistance visits a year.
