Millersville, MD, May 5--Walt Legenstein of Certified Carpet in Lancaster, Pa., was recently recognized by the Association of Specialists in Cleaning and Restoration (ASCR) for his outstanding contributions to the industry over the past two decades.
He was presented with the association’s Helen Bradley Distinguished Service Award at their annual convention last month in Palm Springs, Calif., for his leadership, support and guidance in the cleaning and restoration industry.
Legenstein, a member of ASCR since 1970, served as the association’s president in 1990, had previously held the position of treasurer, and also served as the chairman of the Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Institute.
