MCAA Strategic Partners
Tuesday, February 2, 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM
The Venetian Hotel
In order to articulate and advance the mason contractors' agenda, MCAA members must be engaged in the issues and the MAC PAC (Mason Contractors Political Action Committee).
The main purpose of the MAC PAC is to help elect federal candidates to office - candidates who are pro-construction and who will give MCAA a fair hearing on industry views. Federal laws and regulations have a direct impact on you and your business. Because it is illegal for corporations or State Chapter PACs to directly contribute to federal candidates or to political parties, MAC PAC allows you the opportunity to have a national impact on federal elections.
Contributions raised at this event go exclusively to the MAC PAC. Funds will be used to support pro-masonry candidates in the next election cycle.

The MCAA will be host to a top political figure at this year's reception (to be named later). Attendees will be introduced to our special guest speaker and enjoy a wonderful dinner at the Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino. The guest speaker will give a short 5-10 minute summary of what we can expect on the political front in 2010. This small intimate setting is a great opportunity to get an inside look at the year ahead in politics.
MCAA President Tom Daniel will also give a brief state of the association presentation.

Who is the nation's best bricklayer? The SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500® competition at the World of Masonry in Las Vegas will answer the question.
The competition includes two separate events. Prior to the brick laying competition, each team's tender will prove to the crowd who is the fastest in the "Toughest Tender" contest. These iron men will lay out the masons' competition site with 1000 brick evenly staged.
20 teams consisting of a journeyman mason and a tender will compete in the brick laying competition with the goal of laying as many brick as possible in one hour.
The judges will check each mason's wall for workmanship and production to determine who will make it to the winner's circle.
