HMA UPDATE THANK YOU FOR

HMA UPDATE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! each year at this time we recognize those who have contributed to HMA’s Education/Promotion Campaign. I’m pleased to report that this year’s list of contributors is the longest it’s been in quite some time - a reflection of our improved economy for sure, but also, based on what many of you have told me, a reflection of your approval of our work. Thank you for your confidence and support! Because of you, HMA’s efforts to elevate American Hardwoods as the building and remodeling material of choice can continue. Some of you already know that our 2015 Education/Promotion Campaign will include an additional offering. (Your “extra” financial support is making “it” a reality.) And when all the “I’s” have been dotted and the “t’s” have been crossed, HMA will happily share this new tool with our industry. Stand by. If you would like to discuss our Education/Promotion efforts, please contact me at 412-244-0440 or at ljovanovich@hardwood.org. Until then, here’s to a productive New Year for us all. ■ For tHe period NoveMber 1, 2013, tHrougH oCtober 31, 2014, tHANk you to tHese geNerous CoNtributors: HMA MeMber CoNtributors Anderson-Tully Co.
