WHAT TO WEAR
Atlanta is lucky in that she enjoys, for the most part, a temperate climate. Four distinct seasons allow Atlantans and her visitors to enjoy four different climates, and the versatility of several wardrobes.
Delegates to the MCAA International Masonry Conference the first week of March will find normal high temperatures of 54-60 degrees, while nighttime temps hover between 38-43. Days are apt to be bright, clear and cold, but you're arriving at the tail end of winter, when Mother Nature has been known to zap the city with an occasional ice storm or snowfall.
LADIES EVENTS
A special program is being planned for all MCAA ladies. There will be an MCAA ladies headquarters established at the Atlanta Marriott. Stop in and get the full details.
