Make sure that someone in your firm updates the information and returns the form to the Chapter office.

The Program Planning Committee recommended that we expand the subscription list to the “E-Update”.  They are encouraging member firms to include all project managers, field superintendents and other personnel on the list.  This will enable more personnel to have access to the resources of the Chapter and AGCA.  To add email address to the subscription list contact Linda at agcnebuilders@windstream.net
