The 2017 ALCC ELITE Award Winners & Finalists
Spring has sprung in Colorado, and there’s no better time to celebrate beautiful landscape design in our gorgeous state!
Landscape professionals and industry partners gathered at CU South Denver on March 29th, 2017, to celebrate originality and innovation in landscape design around Colorado, presented by the Associated Landscape Contractors of Colorado.
The ALCC ELITE Awards—Elevating the Landscape Industry Through Excellence—recognize professionalism and innovation, as well as business practices and original projects. The event highlights ALCC’s core values: professionalism, integrity, and executing work to the highest possible standards. These projects reflect the 21st Century values of sustainability and environmental stewardship shared by landscape companies and their clients.
According to ALCC Executive Director John McMahon, ELITE Award recipients and finalists illustrate how Colorado’s landscape companies deliver innovation, best management practices, originality, professionalism and problem solving to their clients.
“These awards celebrate the connections between companies and clients to create and maintain landscapes that support Colorado’s outdoor lifestyles,” said McMahon. “We’re honored to recognize the companies and individuals who ignite ideas and embrace the possibilities within the landscape industry.”
