02-11-2014 - 4th Annual Excellence in Construction Awards
The Excellence in Construction Awards celebration honors the nation's most innovative and high quality construction projects, safety programs and diversity programs.
This year's winners will celebrate on the beautiful island of Maui. The festivities will begin with the awards presentations on Feb. 11. Afterward, participants will enjoy dinner and entertainment at a private luau on the grounds of the acclaimed Grand Wailea. Award winners will be joined by attendees of BizCon at the luau, providing an opportunity to network with ABC and Merit Canada members.
There are many exciting activities planned during the week. Bring the family, and enjoy a tropical vacation! Register for the additional events, including a golf tournament, the Merit Canada Beach Party and a fishing tournament (registration coming soon.)
Registration will open in mid-December. Tickets will include the awards ceremony and the luau.
Members entering EIC, National Safety Excellence Awards and National Diversity Excellence Awards are encouraged to determine who will represent the company in Maui prior to knowing the results of the awards, so travel can be quickly booked once winners are notified.
