Nominations are now open for the Cayman Islands Tourism Association’s annual Stingray Tourism Awards, which recognise outstanding contributions to the industry across all three islands.
The awards, now in their 22nd year, celebrate people working in the hospitality industry, including in the accommodation, restaurants, water-sports and transport sectors, with categories for employee of the year, rising star and manager of the year.
Winners will have to demonstrate leadership, community involvement, exceptional contribution to their role and whether they are a good ambassador for the Cayman Islands.
“Great achievements often start with a simple idea and meaningful awards are born from a sincere appreciation for excellence,” said Sharlene Brenkus, Cayman Islands Tourism Association president.
“We are committed to recognizing and celebrating outstanding contributions to Cayman’s tourism industry across all three islands. The Stingray Tourism Awards were born out of that vision, and each year we come together to honor those who truly go above and beyond.”
Awards ceremony
This year’s event will be held at Grand Cayman Marriott Resort on Friday, 19 Sept. The evening will begin with a cocktail reception at 6pm followed by dinner and the awards ceremony at 7pm.
This event is run in collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism and private sector partners, ensuring that individuals from every sector are honoured.
The deadline for nominations, which can be submitted online, is Friday, 22 Aug.
