Kentucky Rural Water
Association Receives
Website of the Year!
National Rural Water Association is pleased
to announce that Kentucky Rural Water Association is the recipient of
the Excellence in Websites Award presented during NRWA’s Annual Tribute
to Excellence Awards Ceremony held in Sacramento, California on October
12.
Websites help build the public and
professional image of associations. They are a great way to share the
service and benefits of these association’s to a wider audience while
enhancing communications with targeted membership. Additionally, they
fill a critical need for utility membership networking and provide
information 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Sites are judged on
originality, ease of use, timeliness of updates, information provided,
overall design and appearance.
Kentucky RWA also goes a step further by
producing a weekly e-zine (electronic newsletter), which helps the
association stay in touch with their members and constituents. This
rapid deployment of e-news keeps Kentucky members abreast of changing
situations in an effective and efficient manner.
The Kentucky Rural Water Association is a
non-profit organization representing water and wastewater systems
serving rural communities and towns and those commercial firms, which
support these systems. The purpose of the Association is to provide
assistance to these systems in complying with State and Federal
regulations, to help them with management and operational problems and
to provide or stimulate training initiatives, which will promote
personnel development and efficiency.
KRWA was selected for this prestigious
award from a field of 48 state associations.
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
24,558 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
90,000 on-site technical assistance visits a year.
