During the opening session of the upcoming 2010 ABC National Convention in San Diego, ABC will present the Charles A. Mullan Awards to the chapters in each of the 10 ABC divisions that demonstrated the greatest growth in their membership dues base in 2009. The Inland Pacific Chapter is proud to announce that the chapter has won the award for the second consecutive year.

"The Charles A. Mullan Award is the most prestigious membership growth award that a chapter can receive," said Kirk Pickerel, ABC president and CEO. "Just as Charles Mullan had the vision and determination to grow ABC into a strong viable national association, the Mullan Award recognizes those chapters who are dedicated to fulfilling his vision for growing ABC.”

The Inland Pacific Chapter would like to thank each and every member for their support during 2009 that allowed us to bring this prestigious award home to Spokane.  This award recognizes the hard work and dedication of our membership in support of the Merit Shop philosophy across the Inland Northwest region and beyond. However, with the challenges facing the construction industry, we must not rest but  continue our effort and commitment in maintaining the achievements we have made in the spirit of free enterprise. With your help, we plan to do everything possible to keep this award in Spokane for years to come!

If you would like to learn more about this national award or how you can further your activism within ABC, please contact your Membership Director, Mark Laskowski at either (509)252-9209.
