Announcing the Masonry Hall of Fame

Now accepting nominations

By Tim O’Toole

The Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) is proud to announce the formation of the Masonry Hall of Fame.

The Masonry Hall of Fame was created to recognize and award those individuals who have dedicated their lives to the masonry industry.

Do you know someone who has dedicated their life to the masonry industry? If so, nominate them to be part of the inaugural Masonry Hall of Fame class.

Nominees must have had a major impact on the masonry industry, not necessarily with just the MCAA, and must have been or be in the industry for a minimum of 25 years. Nominees can be but are not limited to contractors, employees, instructors, architects, engineers, and association staff.

Nominations are open to any MCAA member and masonry chapters.
Submissions must state the significant accomplishments of the individual nominee.

Nominations will be reviewed by the Hall of Fame judging panel including:

• Executive Officers (4)
• 1 Regional Vice President (rotated annually)
• 1 Committee Chair (rotated annually)
• 1 at large member (rotated annually)
• Executive Director

Any nominee must receive 6 of the 8 eligible votes in order to be accepted into the Hall of Fame.

Each recipient will receive one plaque. An identical plaque will be on display at the MCAA headquarters.

Nominations will be accepted until Friday, December 9, 2011 at 11:59 PM CDT. Nominees accepted into the Hall of Fame will be inducted during the MCAA Convention.
