Developer of the Year

Posted online

John L. Morris, president and founder of Bass Pro Shops, was awarded the Developer of the Year Award by the Springfield Contractors Association at its annual Salute to Design & Construction Awards Banquet. The banquet is the highlight of Salute to Design & Construction Week, which was Oct. 26-Nov. 3. Randy Hawkins, president of the Springfield Contractors Association, presented Morris with the award. "We are all very lucky to live in such a special part of the world as the Ozarks. ... The work that you craftsmen do reminds us of the extraordinary work the people here in this area do. I share this award with the people in our company with a great deal of pride," Morris said. Jim Anderson, president of the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce and co-master of ceremonies for the event, said of Morris, "Here is a man who has literally put Springfield, Missouri, on the map. Wherever you go, people know Springfield as the home of Bass Pro Shops."
