Do you know an Arlington hospitality professional who goes above and beyond in their role?

The Arlington Convention & Visitors Bureau launched its second WOW Award to recognize front-line professionals who go the extra mile to provide guests with outstanding experiences at any Arlington hospitality-related business.

“We talk a lot about the numbers behind tourism in Arlington; over 14 million visitors each year, thousands of jobs, millions in economic impact, but behind those numbers are the people who make it all happen. It is these people who are the faces of our hospitality industry," said Arlington CVB Vice President of Marking and PR Decima Mullen. "Amazing people who warmly welcome guests into our home, Arlington. We feel it’s important to recognize, support and celebrate the dedicated individuals who have gone above and beyond in our industry and for our visitors, despite such unprecedented times.”

Eligible nominees include non-managerial employees in the hotel, restaurant, retail, tourism or hospitality-related fields.

Anyone is invited to nominate a professional who excels in their role and makes a lasting impact on guests through their kindness and customer service.

Nominations are open through noon on April 8, 2021. Click here to make your nomination.
