We can run it on the MICB www.certifiedmasterinspector.org so that it is open to all inspectors. We can have categories for those who have contributed to the profession:
Home inspectors
Environmental inspectors
Educators
Innovators of products and services for our industry.
Longevity
Creative marketing
Industry publishers or authors
Message board contributors
Meeting coordinators
Veterans who have helped others
etc.
Anyone want to form an selection committee with me?
There are so many in our industry who have done and continue to do so much.
I think it’s a great idea. It would be nice to be able to recognize those who maybe don’t get as much exposure. Those who do alot but it’s in the background and they don’t ask for recognition.
I like the idea, and am stunned to be mentioned in connection with it. Like Russ said we should start with nominations for those who have retired or passed away.
We ourselves have had too many members taken away from us in the last few years, and I can also think of industry stalwarts like Norm Sage who’s helpfulness crossed all association boundries.
I did not intend to ignore your post. I think the NACHI membership awards are great, but only apply to NACHI members. I can think of so many outside of our group that are so worthy of recognition.
Like the Rock and Roll hall of fame, it doesn’t matter which band you play for.
Oh, Gerry is correct. A legislator who helped our industry by putting forth or changing home inspection laws wouldn’t get a membership award, that wouldn’t work.
That was discussed and asked for openions from the members and I do not believe there was any response . Both PAUL And I had picked the same person who we felt had added a tremendous amount of help to NACHI members.

It did not work last year It just might now . I do feel that this is a good idea but we got little or no response before . Roy Cooke sr
If you wish to know who I we thought deserved let me know I do not wish to make the name public.
Anyway, just like the Football Hall of Fame doesn’t limit itself to only members of one team or only players, neither should the Inspector Hall of Fame.
So many non-inspectors contribute to our industry.
