FSCT Honors Rick Hille as Recipient of the 2006 George Baugh Heckel Award
Rick Hille, vice president of operations for The Flood Company, Hudson, Ohio, and a past president of The Federation of Societies for Coatings Technology (FSCT), was awarded the FSCT's highest honor, The 2006 George Baugh Heckel Award during the FSCT's Annual General Meeting (AGM) last month in New Orleans.
According to Gerry Gough, The Heckel Award committee chair, Hille was selected for his extraordinary service and efforts during a period of major transition. "Rick offered strong and effective leadership in serving as the FSCT's president by providing the impetus for the new governance structure to be put into place," he said. "While the efforts to make these changes happen were supported by and involved many other people, it was Rick's drive and enthusiasm that made it all happen."
