Rising Stars Nomination Deadline Is This Friday

Save the Date and Get Your Tickets. Rising Stars Recognition Dinner is July 24. The stars will be out July 24 at the Omni William Penn Hotel in Pittsburgh where Progressive Railroading's 20 Rising Stars honorees will be honored with a special dinner. You, too, can take part in the celebration. Individual tickets and tables of 10 are now available. Additional information on the dinner and how to purchase tickets to the event is available on the Rising Stars website. Progressive Railroading defines a Rising Star as someone under the age of 40 who has made, or is making, a positive impact on his or her company, organization, department or team, and is viewed by others — peers, colleagues, supervisors, clients or associates — as an up-and-coming leader in the rail industry. This year's 20 honorees were chosen based on their contributions to the railroad industry, career achievements, demonstrated leadership, professional association activity or community involvement. Their stories will be profiled on ProgressiveRailroading.com this summer, and published in the magazine's September issue.
