The Connie Award was established by the Containerization & Intermodal Institute in 1972 to recognize individuals that have made extraordinary contributions to the evolution of containerized shipping and intermodalism.
Named for the container, the Connie Award quickly grew in stature as a recognition of achievement and dedication by peers.
The award has gone to an eclectic group — from the heads of railroads and steamship lines to top government officials, media executives and even to managers within a port authority whose contributions were acknowledged by the industry.
The annual Connie luncheon is a consistent sell-out because of its class reunion atmosphere that makes it a “must” event on everyone’s calendar.
Customarily, the Connie luncheon is held in December and the event includes the awarding of scholarships to midshipmen from Kings Point, the SUNY Maritime College at Fort Schuyler and other schools. Both Crowley Maritime and New York Container Terminal present their annual scholarships at this singular CII event.
