This year marks the 55th anniversaries of Foot Levelers and Parker Seminars, celebrating 55 years of providing top quality products, services, and educational opportunities to the chiropractic profession.
Foot Levelers and Parker Seminars had the unique opportunity to celebrate their anniversaries together during the Parker Seminars annual international event on February 7-9 in Las Vegas. The sixth annual Foot Levelers' achievement awards were presented to a group of the chiropractic profession's most distinguished leaders at the event. Foot Levelers' President and CEO, Kent S. Greenawalt, presented the awards in recognition of their outstanding accomplishments.
"We are privileged to have this opportunity to recognize their achievements and thank them for all they have done," Kent Greenawalt said of the award recipients. "These four individuals have made a tremendous impact on the profession."
The four Achievement Awards were given to the following recipients:
