My number-one goal as 2020 ASA president is to drive ASA programs deeper into our member organizations. 

One thing common to all members of ASA is we love this industry and we want to stay in this game for as long as we can.

In September at NETWORK, ASA’s annual conference held this year in Washington, D.C., we celebrated 50 years of our association leading our industry.

As a long-time ASA member, I have seen the expanded value given to us by our national association year after year.

As business leaders, you know the importance of building your business network.

If you are like me, you read the article titled “How committed is your organization to training” in our ASA News section in the May issue of Supply House Times with a degree of alarm and concern.

As the industry’s national association, ASA is in a unique position to influence building and product codes, federal and state regulatory issues as well as legislation, as it emerges. 

1969 was a very iconic year in our nation’s history.
