What is the Wall of Fame?
The Wall of Fame is an annual event that recognizes exemplary employees for their dedication, innovation, customer service, and professionalism.

They will be publicly recognized by WSDOT and WSTA later this year.

When and where will honorees be recognized?

When are the nominations due?
We are accepting your nominations now. The deadline for all submussions is Tuesday, July 8. No late submissions will be accepted, so please be mindful of the deadline. Complete and submit the forms on the conference website, including photos and a brief summary of each nominee's work for which they are being honored.

How many honorees may we recognize?

Each agency may submit up to three nominations: two individuals and one team.

Focus on the honoree’s head and shoulders for both individuals and teams.
Try to avoid the “mug shot” look.
Select a pleasing background to ensure a high-quality photo, preferably without shadows and background interference (trees, windows, fences, building facades, etc.).

Identify each attached photo with honoree’s name and/or team members’ names and agency. If an agency is submitting photos for two individual honorees, number the photo and match it to the number on the entry form. Team photos should be labeled as members are arranged (left to right, front to back).

Note: These photos represent both your employee(s) and your agency. It is important to submit a quality product. Electronic, professional-quality photos in color are preferred. The photos will be displayed on the honoree’s commemorative poster. If you do not have digital capabilities or need assistance, please email Debi LaVaque.
