McElravy Award at the annual conference of the International Association of Assembly Managers at its meeting in July in Anaheim, Calif..

The award is named in honor of one of the founding organizers of the association and is granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors for extraordinary contributions to the association and to the profession of public assembly facility management.
