Words: Tim O'Toole
The Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) held its thirteenth annual Online Auction from April 25 to April 27, 2017 at www.masoncontractors.org/auction. Contractors were able to bid on several new, name brand items for half the cost of retail including scaffolding, mortar boards, trowels and much more. Bidding was fast and furious, but there could only be one winner for each of the great items. Many lots came down to the final seconds, making it an exciting auction for all involved. The MCAA would like to thank the following companies for their generous donations. We appreciate your support of the industry:
