Competition Sponsorships Now Available
Words: Colin ClampettIt's that time of year again. We just finished yet another successful Masonry Showcase and are now in the planning stages for 2005. As you know, the Masonry Showcase holds various competition programs to help showcase the skill of the masonry trade as well as promote the traditional and non-traditional uses of masonry. These highlight events give crowds a front row experience showing that masonry construction isn't simply throwing up a few bricks and blocks, but is actually highly skilled and gives attendees a real sense of the art of the masonry trade.
For our 2005 show, we have added a new contest to our competition program. We are currently looking for competition sponsors offering further exposure opportunity for our exhibitors and supporters. Here are descriptions of our competition offerings and exclusive sponsorship opportunities to our exhibitors.

The new addition to our contests for 2005 is a 2-day competition challenging leading mason contractors and architects from across the country to create a design/build project with a predetermined amount of brick, masonry units, glass block and cultured stone. This is a great sponsorship opportunity due to the new exposure and interest it will generate as well as showcasing the use of multiple masonry related products.
