The Chairman’s Award recipient is selected by the Executive Committee of the I-CAR International Board of Directors.

“I-CAR would not be where it is today without the leadership and volunteer efforts of people like Tom Moreland,” said William Brower, chair of the I-CAR International Board of Directors. “Through his significant contributions to the I-CAR board and his continuing support of industry education, Tom has been a tireless advocate of I-CAR’s mission and vision and is well-deserving of this honor.”

Moreland’s career in the collision repair industry has spanned more than 30 years, including more than six years of service as a member of the I-CAR International Board of Directors. He has participated on a variety of I-CAR board committees, was a member of the I-CAR Executive Committee and is a past chairman of I-CAR.

He is also a past recipient of the Hall of Eagles award.

The Chairman’s Award was presented on July 24, 2013, as part of the I-CAR Awards Ceremony to kick off the 2013 I-CAR Conference held at the Westin Boston Waterfront Hotel.
