Over the past 30 years, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has welcomed many special guests to its properties. As part of Rosewood’s 30th Anniversary celebration this year, Rosewood is seeking nominations for 30 Under 30, a unique recognition program designed to reward 30 men and women under the age of 30 who have demonstrated qualities that Rosewood holds dear as part of the company’s own core values: mindful of the community, leadership with integrity, passion of conviction, respect and dedication to preserving our natural environment, creativity and strong sense of life balance.

This December Rosewood will debut a website of 30 Under 30, featuring the 30 people who most lead lives of consequence, and Rosewood will make a $100 donation on behalf of each finalist to the non-profit organization of their choice. In addition, they will each enjoy a complimentary dinner for two at the Rosewood hotel or resort of their choice. Rosewood also will select one nominee whose life is truly exemplary to receive a $1,000 donation to the non-profit of their choice and a complimentary three-night stay at any Rosewood hotel or resort.
Helping to select the best 30 Under 30 will be a panel of judges including Caroline Rose Hunt, honorary chairman of Rosewood Hotels; John Scott, president and CEO of Rosewood Hotels; Stephen Hunt Sands, chairman of Rosewood Hotels; Peter Greenberg, CBS News travel editor; Jason Binn, CEO and founder of Niche Media; and Pamela Fiori, editor-at-large of Town & Country. To nominate yourself, a friend or colleague, visit www.rosewoodhotels.com/30under30  and submit a brief 250 word statement detailing the nominee’s qualifications. Please include a resume, if possible. Applications will be accepted through Nov. 1, 2010. Winners will be announced on Dec. 1, 2010 on the 30 Under 30 website.
