The Honoree is Fred Steeves, a collision repair instructor from Oxford Hills Technical School in South Paris, ME. Steeves received an expense-paid trip to NACE 2008 where he was recognized for this achievement and honored with a plaque during the Education Instructor Feedback session. Steeves worked in the collision industry for 23 years and has been an instructor for 10 years. Among his many activities, Steeves serves as a SkillsUSA Advisor and is Chairperson for the State SkillsUSA competitions. He is also an I-CAR instructor and the Chairperson for the Maine Auto Collision Repair Instructors tech update meetings. He has worked tirelessly to continue to recruit students to the collision repair program and place them in jobs within the industry. Steeves was nominated by Garry Carr, an instructor at Maine Vocational Region Tech in Brunswick, ME. Carr stated in his recommendation, “Fred Steeves is a model citizen in every way. He is the type of guy you can count on. Always busy with students or family stuff, but never too busy to lend a hand to a friend…Fred has been and continues to be the single most positive influence in Maine with regards to I-CAR and education with students in the auto collision industry here.” “The I-CAR Education Foundation exists to help students on the path to a rewarding career in collision repair, yet we realize our efforts mean nothing without the drive and dedication of career and technical school faculty like Fred,” said Scott Kruger, I-CAR Education Foundation Executive Director. “Congratulations to Fred Steeves with thanks for his devotion to education, his enthusiasm for his students, and his tireless contributions to the future of the collision industry.” The I-CAR Education Foundation, founded in 1991, is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to securing donations that support philanthropic and collision repair education activities that promote and enhance career opportunities in the industry.
