2023 Honorees Theresa Roosendaal and Brian Ace.
The Kennewick Man and Woman of the Year Honors date back to the years immediately following World War II. The first Kennewick Man of the Year was Lawrence Scott in 1946, for whom the park bordering Canal Drive is named. Scott served as Mayor of Kennewick and was a stalwart in developing the city's downtown area. The first Woman of the Achievement, in 1948, was Blanche Dickinson Pratt. She was a founder and first president of the East Benton County Historical Society along with many other civic endeavors. The legacy of these two important community leaders is still visible throughout Kennewick.
