Report

Activity in the Muncie Chapter has been a bit slow over the winter months. With that being said the membership has still been able to stay fairly busy with work opportunities in the surrounding areas. Going forward things are shaping up to be another good year for man hours. As the temperatures get warmer the work schedules of the jobs are getting closer. Contractors such as Broady-Campbell, Complete Masonry Services, FA Wilhelm, and Hagerman Construction all have work scheduled at this time with more work coming out to bid. There are no major refractory rebuild jobs scheduled at this time, but as always there will be pop up hot work repairs taking place.

In case you haven’t seen yet, I have started using Facebook to help share information about things of interest.  Go to “BAC Local 4 In/Ky Muncie Chapter” to like and follow.
