Convention Space on Record Pace

Words: Colin FaulAnother convention seems right around the corner and this one is looking to be a big hit with exhibitors and attendees as well. As you may know, this year's Masonry Showcase will be at Construct America?. Masonry Showcase will be co-located with the Construction Specifications Institute and the Total Facility Managers shows at Chicago's McCormick Place, April 20-22, 2005.

I am assuming the responsibilities of Colin's position as Manager of Professional Development. I am looking forward to working with our members and our exhibitors! If I can be of assistance, please call me at 800-536-2225.
