Travel + Leisure Co. Takes Home 18 ARDA Awards at Annual Conference, Including Prestigious ACE Employee of the Year Award

ORLANDO, Fla. , April 18 /Businesswire/ - At the annual American Resort Development Association (ARDA) Timeshare Together conference, Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL) was honored with a total of 18 awards, including the prestigious ARDA ACE Employee of the Year Award for Scott Cavanaugh, vice president, Strategic Partnerships and Licensing.

In his 22 years with Travel + Leisure Co., Cavanaugh has played an instrumental role in furthering the company’s commitment to the communities in which it operates. One standout example of his dedicated efforts to drive philanthropy is the Stars & Pars Golf Tournament and Gala, an annual event supporting the Central Florida nonprofit Give Kids the World Village, which he helped grow into a fundraiser that raised more than $2.5 million since its inception.

Travel + Leisure Co. was also awarded the Activities Program Team Award, bestowed to associates at The Moab Resort, an affiliate of the WorldMark by Wyndham vacation club.
