SWA President
Andrew Porciello reported that our membership is at an all time
high (62 members). The educational seminars and social events were
very successful with record attendance. As well, SWA had excellent
visibility at the Sealant Waterproofing and Roofing Institute meetings
during the year. The product/project showcase is an on-going success.
President Andrew Porciello thanked the Board for their support and
looked forward to working with them during their second term of
office.
