By Imani Brodie


The website MasonrySystems.org (MSO) was created nearly a decade ago, due to the interest in such an initiative by different MCAA chapters across the nation. Since then, the website has not changed from its original form. However, now that our industry has become heavily involved with other internet ventures, a new and improved MSO website was the first order of business for the year 2012.

The overall goal for the MSO website is to create a user-friendly, aesthetically pleasant, and informational website that is used as an industry standard not only for mason contractors but also for architects, owners, masonry suppliers, and other interested parties. With this new design, I do believe we will achieve all of these goals. MSO will reflect on all of us, as an industry. With that said, we are inviting your feedback into this design process! 
 
Please join us for a free, formal introduction and demonstration of the new MasonrySystems.org website via webinar on Tuesday, July 24, 2012, at 3 p.m. EST. You must register at http://www.masoncontractors.org/mso. The more participants we have, the more feedback we can consider into the final design schematic of the website.
 
If you cannot participate, please let me know, so that we can somehow engage your feedback on this initiative. For any questions, comments, or concerns with regards to the website, please feel free to contact me also.
