Larry Shideler, president of Pro-Team Inc., has been named the "2001 Idaho Small Business Person of the Year" by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

According to a press release issued by Pro-Team, Shideler said that he certainly did not earn the title on his own. "The award is a reflection of the hard work everyone has put in at Pro-Team," Shideler said. "The award is a great honor, but it takes a 'we' -- it takes everybody."
