NCMCA Convention

Words: Brandy ShaverThis year's NCMCA Convention will be held April 27-30 at Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach, N.C. The event promises to be both fun and informative, with educational seminars by day and entertaining receptions by night. Bring your partner and embark on the spouse luncheon and group shopping event sponsored by Giant Cement, Gaston Rentals and Kirby Construction Services, or partake in the EZ Grout/Grout Hog Golf Tournament.

Important convention activities include the election and installation of new NCMCA officers for the 2006-2008 term; the roll-out of the NCMCA Masonry Contractor Certification program; and the drawing for the $10,000 prize in the NCMCA Reverse Raffle to benefit the NCMCA Certification Program start-up.

Attendees have been offered a very special opportunity with accommodations this year, especially for couples who may wish to share the two-bedroom/two-bath condos with friends. For more information about reserving a room at Kingston Plantation, visit www.kingstonplantation.com/accommodations/condos/brighton.cfm. The early deadline for Kingston Plantation Brighton Tower room reservations is March 28.
