o kick-off an exciting new year for ARDA's Awards Program, there is no better place to start than by thanking the 2001 Awards Program Sponsors. The 40+ companies that support the Program through their sponsorships enable ARDA to provide the level of recognition and celebration that nominees deserve. It is through these honorees' efforts that new and higher standards of professionalism are set.

Those that support the Awards Program through sponsorships are endorsing this continued quest for excellence within the resort development industry. We thank them once again and hope that they will maintain their commitment to this crucial industry initiative during the coming years.

We also wish to acknowledge and thank an outstanding group of individuals - the ARDA Awards Committee. All ARDA Committees are made up of volunteers who give of their time for the benefit of the industry. This Committee, to a person, has demonstrated unparalleled dedication and commitment to ARDA's Awards Program. By devoting large portions of time and effort to the Program, they ensure that the Program provides recognition in the appropriate areas and that winners receive the quality of recognition that they deserve. Without their helping hands, the Awards Program implementation and celebration as we know it would not be possible.
