It’s that time of year again! Join the Midwest Roofing Contractors Association’s (MRCA) 11th annual Foundation Auction event on Thursday, October 19, 2023, at the Hilton Omaha Grand Central Ballroom. It’s just one of numerous special events the MRCA conference has to offer this year. The Black and White Ball is free to all registered attendees and exhibitors and will feature a reception along with both a silent and live auction.
The auction benefits educational programs, industry research and academic scholarships for MRCA members and their families. This year alone the MRCA Foundation has funded two impactful research studies and 15 scholarships amounting to over $182,000. That’s just for 2023. Donations made to the Foundation Auction are what make this possible. The findings of the two studies will be released during the conference!
Meet new people and shake hands with old friends as you sort through the silent auction tables and bid on your favorites. With so many options, you’re sure to find something you can’t live without. Stay for the finale and feel your heart pumping with the introduction of each new item during the live auction. It’s going to be a hit! You’ll have the chance to win a six-month R-Club membership with RoofersCoffeeShop®, go on a guided pheasant hunt or take a hot air and induction welding safety class – and that’s only the beginning. Rackley Roofing has donated the big-ticket item for the event, giving you the chance to win two suite tickets to the Country Music Association (CMA) Fest in Nashville, Tennessee next June!
Unable to attend in person? Consider donating an auction item and show your support from afar! Last year’s Foundation Auction raised a record-breaking amount of over $102,000. Can we break the record again this year? View the auction website to see what’s already been donated or to donate yourself.
