First I would like to wish each and every reader of the Masonry Magazine a healthy and prosperous New Year. With the end of this year, my term as Chairman is almost complete and quickly coming to an end.
We are all very busy this time of year. We all work to balance our lives all year long, but during the holidays, it is time to reflect on our families.
To begin, I want to thank all of the contractors and their families who attended the Midyear Meeting in Orlando.
As we say goodbye to the summer of 2013, we look forward to a beautiful fall. This time of year gives everyone new energy and motivation to get back out and do some of those projects that have been put off.
As we emerge from the recession we???ve all been wrapped up in, there is a new ??? but familiar ??? issue for our industry surfacing, and that is our workforce.
As president of the MCAA, I am often asked what we are doing for you as mason contractors.
The MCAA officers, along with Jeff Buczkiewicz and staff, have been very busy this past month.
We have just returned from our Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C.?? I was hoping that more contractors would have attended.
As President of the MCAA, I am often asked, ???Why should I join the MCAA, and what do I get out of being a member????
I am very excited to announce that the MCAA???s South of 40 committee will present their first on-location seminar, scheduled in conjunction with the MCAA legislative conference.
The 2013 MCAA Convention has concluded. We are all back at work, taking what we learned and applying it to our own companies. The attendance of mason contractors was at a record level at the convention this year.
As I write this message, we are about to leave for Las Vegas for our annual convention. I hope all of you have reviewed the convention literature and have found a reason to attend.
I would like to wish you a prosperous New Year. As we move into 2013, we have many new challenges facing us. The current economic environment makes survival skills that much more critical to all of our suppliers and us.
How did the election turn out for you and your company? There were some surprises with some disappointments, but when all is said and done, we are set for another two to four years of governmental guidance.
I find myself having returned recently from a trip to Denver to visit with the fine folks of the Rocky Mountain Masonry Institute (RMMI).
