2010 MCAA Midyear Meeting

Join us for a fun and exciting midyear in Chicago

By Tim O’Toole

All MCAA members are invited and encouraged to attend the 2010 MCAA Midyear Meeting, July 27-30, 2010 in Chicago, Illinois.

The festivities kick off on Tuesday night with a welcome dinner at the Fairmont Chicago. MCAA Committee Meetings will be held on Wednesday, and four educational sessions on essential topics for mason contractors will be offered for certification credit on Thursday. Attendees will have plenty of free time to explore the city or partake in optional events including a tour of haunted spots around Chicago and joint meetings between MCAA and NCMA that will take place throughout the week. The Midyear Meeting will wrap-up on Thursday night with a reception and dinner at The Signature Room at the 95th, where attendees will dine more than 1,000 feet above the Chicago skyline.

Accommodations will be at the Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park, which has reclaimed the city skyline as a beacon of modern design, following a dramatic $50 million transformation. Experience this AAA Four-Diamond landmark, recognized for exceptional service and amenities on Condé Nast Traveler's Gold List and Travel & Leisure Magazine's Top 500 Hotels List.
