TAMARAC, Fla. — Bryan Hage is the 2019 CarWash College Instructor of the Year. Bryan was presented the Shawn R. Brown Award for Instructional Excellence by Paul Fazio, CEO of Sonny’s Enterprises LLC at a luncheon.

“Bryan has been a CarWash College instructor since the very first class back in 2006,” said Bob Fox, CarWash College Manager. “Students love the fact that Bryan has a strong operational background to draw from and that he speaks from real-world experience in his sessions. He is also the first two-time recipient of the award.”

Recent winners include Jorge Jaramillo, Vic Alonso and Richard Ovalles.

The Shawn R. Brown Award for Instructional Excellence is given each year in memory of Shawn Brown, a former CarWash College instructor whose life was cut tragically short.

The CarWash College “Rookie of the Year” award was presented to Luis Hernandez.

“Luis’ enthusiasm is infectious!” said Fox. “He became one of the students’ favorite instructors from his first day and lives and breathes CarWash College. He is always searching for more ways to improve the classes.”

Kathy Inman, the former CarWash College administrator and registrar, was also recognized for her years of service. Kathy transferred to another division within Sonny’s.

If you haven’t already, you should definitely check out the video on our YouTube channel which is aptly named, “Twenty Years of Express Washing.”

Express washing as we know it today was really born in the south, which historically had been a strong full-service market. The early pioneers of the express format made a bold move to buck the norm of an already successful format, primarily in an effort to reduce labor costs. The effect was having to retrain customers about everything they knew about professional carwashing.
