Calendar

MCC is turning 30 this year! Each year MCC’s membership base has grown and the number and quality of the programs offered by MCC has grown with it. Continuing education programs, hands-on demonstrations, golf and sporting clays events, scholarships, research… The list of MCC activities is hard to keep track of even for those who are tapped in regularly.

The MCC Board of Directors and Membership Committee invite you to join us for a 30th Anniversary Celebration at Topgolf in Brooklyn Center Tuesday afternoon, March 12. The purpose of the event is to provide a fun way for our members to have a chance to network in a relaxed atmosphere while learning more about what MCC has to offer. The kicker? We want you to invite someone from your office who doesn’t currently attend MCC events – who may not even know that they’re a member. Our goal this year is to increase participation from a broader, more diverse cross-section of our current membership base. You are encouraged to invite colleagues from within your company or even someone from a company who is not currently a member but who could gain from involvement in MCC.

The event will begin with a short panel discussion that will be moderated by the 2017 MCC President, Murphy Curran (Meyer Borgman Johnson). Panelists will include four industry greats who have supported MCC since its inception - Dave Pace, Mike Ramerth, Dean Stroschein and Terry Swor. They will reminisce about how their involvement with MCC has impacted their careers and provide some insight on what they wish they knew at the beginning of their careers.  

Registration opens at 2:00 pm.  The one-hour presentation begins at 2:30 pm.  Topgolf, food and beverages will run from 3:30 - 6:30 pm.  You don't have to be a golfer to enjoy Topgolf!  No experience is needed.  Clubs are provided.

This meeting is intended for members of the MCC Board of Directors and the Chairs of MCC Committees.  It is an "invite only" meeting.  Questions?  Contact Margaret Mills.

Tomorrow's Schools - Building the Future with Strength (A Case Study of the Menahga School Addition from the School District, Architect and Contractor) will feature Kevin Wellen (Superintendent at Menahga Public Schools), Steve Skoblik, AIA (Foss Architecture & Interiors) and Chad Regnier (Concrete, Inc.)

Construction is currently underway for the 85,000 sf addition to the Menahga School in Menahga, MN. Scheduled to open for the 2019-20 school season, this building is utilizing Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) for the exterior wall system. Participants will learn why ICF’s were chosen, how the building was designed and the methods of construction. 

Registration opens at 7:00 am.  A full hot breakfast buffet will be served beginning at 7:15 am.  The presentation will begin at 8:00 am and will conclude by 9:00 am.
