President's Message

Mason Contractors +
Specifiers =
Construct America

Alan Griffin
President, Mason Contractors Association
of America

I would like to personally invite you to Chicago in April 2005 to the MCAA Masonry Showcase at Construct America. MCAA's Masonry Showcase will be co-locating with the Construction Specifications Institute and Total Facility Management shows, creating an extraordinary industry event called Construct America.

At MCAA's Masonry Showcase, you will have access to over 800 new exhibits, many of which can have an impact on your business. As I visited Construct America last year, what struck me the most were the hundreds of product and equipment exhibits that I could incorporate into my business, broadening our masonry operations and profitability.

Another important factor was the opportunity to come together with our customers, the construction specifier, at the same show. Over 6,000 specifiers and architects are expected to join us. This means you not only have the opportunity to see hundreds of new products, but you can possibly meet new customers as well. No other show offers you this opportunity.

Masonry Showcase at Construct America will debut in Chicago, April 20 — 22, 2005. Never before has the Showcase been to Chicago and taken advantage of all the things this beautiful city has to offer.

When you receive registration materials for the Masonry Showcase, remember only one show offers you hundreds of new products and thousands of masonry customers, all under one roof... Masonry Showcase at Construct America. The choice is easy.

See you in Chicago!
