MRN was pleased to honor long time MRN member and staunch support of recycling Ford Schumann with the 2022 Dwight Copenhaver Recycler of the Year and Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2022 MRN/SWANA-MA Conference on June 23.

Ford’s leadership in the resource management field includes 33 years as President of Infinity Recycling and member of the Maryland Recycling Network’s Board of Directors for the entire 30 years since the organization was founded in 1992.

Not only has Ford dedicated his life and career to effective resource management, he has done so with the utmost humility and modesty. Never one to boast about his most impressive achievements, Ford is truly a giant in Maryland’s recycling history endowed with a gentle spirit and a heart of gold.

Congratulations to Ford for this well-deserved honor!
