Official 2015 SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500® regional schedule released
SPEC MIX, Inc. announces the 2015 SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500® Regional Competition schedule
The official 2015 SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500® Regional calendar has been released. It’s that time of year again, time for masons to take up their trowels and decide who is going to compete for the title of “The World’s Best Mason.”
The bricklaying competition consists of competing masonry teams, each with a mason and mason tender building a 26 foot double wythe brick wall. The most bricks laid and counted under the quality rules wins the event. The winning Regional teams will go to Las Vegas on February 3, 2016 to attend the World of Concrete/World of Masonry held in Las Vegas, Nevada. There, they will compete in the 2016 SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500 National Event. This event has the world’s largest masonry competition cash and prize list, valued at over $100,000.
Masons interested in competing or getting more information can do so by calling their local SPEC MIX representative, call 888-SPECMIX or visit the www.specmixbricklayer500.com website to download a registration form and get more information.
