NAHB Conference in Minnesota
The NAHB’s Association Management Conference will be August 4-6, 2020 in Minneapolis. This is a great opportunity for all EOs in Wisconsin to attend this great training opportunity since no flight costs will be required! Don’t forget, scholarships will also be available. Stay tuned for more information, but for now, mark your calendars!
Nominations & Awards
Please start giving thought to those individuals you would like to nominate to the WBA Board of Directors, as well as those individuals you would like to nominate for state awards to be given out at the WBA Installation in Door County in February. Nomination forms for 2020 have been posted to the EO Resources page and are due December 13, 2019.
The Blueprint
The most recent Blueprint is up! Take a look and feel free to include on your social media platforms and in newsletters!
Local Installation Requests
If you would like to request the attendance/participation of a WBA Executive Committee member for your local installations, please contact Brad Boycks at your earliest convenience.
Upcoming Events
Friday, February 7: Member Meeting and President’s Installation
Stone Harbor Resort, Sturgeon Bay
Thursday, March 5: Trends in Housing Conference
The Ingleside Hotel, Waukesha
due to the current political climate, and that there is not a lot of movement in the legislature, this event will be replacing next year’s Advocacy Day.
Please be sure to include these events as save the dates in your communications to members!!
Badger Builder Advertising & New Sponsorship Categories
We will be moving forward with publication of The Badger Builder, likely with The Badger Group out of Fort Atkinson. Ad sales will be happening in house, and as soon as the media kit is finalized, you will receive a digital copy to include in communications to members (or non members) who may be interested in placing an ad.
As you have heard discussed at member meetings in the past, Harvey’s goal was for new sponsorship categories to be created. Those have been finished and are posted on this page.
