[26] Carrow's production of the 2015 Prudential U.S Fiugure Skating Championships garnered two international awards, including the top award, at the 2015 SportsTravel Magazine's World Best Sporting Event Awards. The Championship won in the category of Best Amateur Multi-discipline or Multi-sport Event and went on to capture the sport tourism industry's highest award, Event of the Year.[27] Carrow also founded and led the inaugural USA Masters Games, the National Sports Festival for Adult Athletes, which featured 24 sports and was held July 22-31, 2016 in Greensboro, NC.
