For those of you who did not attend in 2003, our members had a wonderful time in sunny San Diego. Entertainment events such as a tour and dinner with Marine Corps officers at the MCAS Miramar Air Station, the location of the movie Top Gun, and the unforgettable evening among some of the world's most endangered animals at the San Diego Zoo were just some of the meetings highlights.

Well hold the date for yet another memorable event in Texas's historic San Antonio, home of the Alamo and the renowned River Walk. The 2004 Midyear meeting will be held September 23-25, 2004 at the Westin River Walk Hotel. Further information and event schedules will become available in the following months so keep your eyes peeled for updates.

We hope to see you all there to actively participate in the MCAA to further influence your industry. Be a leader in the promotion of Masonry and join the opportunity to help further build upon the solid structure that we in the Masonry industry are proud of.
