Is Your State Association a Rock Star?

The NRMCA State Association of the Year Award is presented to the state ready mixed concrete association that's making significant progress for the industry in the areas of promotion, education, advocacy and/or research. The award is presented at the awards ceremony at NRMCA’s Annual Convention to be held in March in Arizona.

The winning state executive as well as his/her elected official are encouraged to attend and receive the award. The winner is announced on NRMCA’s website, profiled in E-NEWS and Concrete InFocus magazine, and publicized via a press release to the industry.The nomination should highlight the association’s efforts and successes in concrete promotion, education (both within the industry and to client/customer base), advocacy and research as well as any other outstanding achievements. Particularly, the nomination should identify areas in which the state association has partnered with NRMCA and/or utilized NRMCA programs. Applicants are also asked to provide budget size, number of members and number of staff as this information allows the judges to review each entry taking into account the resources available.

Nomination Criteria:

1. The nominee must be a state or area ready mixed concrete association. The nominee may have other areas, including aggregate or construction, as part of its function. Prior winners are eligible to participate.
