Upon the gracious reappointment by the 2016 VBCOA President John Walsh, Mike Williams and Paula Eubank shall again serve as the CO-Chairs of the VBCOA Awards and Resolutions Committee in the year 2016. The A&R Committee Members representing the eight VBCOA Regions also generously accepted to reserve the A&R Committee in the year 2016 – Steve Borders, Gayl Brunk, Steve Childers, Steve Higginbotham, Brad Hudson, Charles Hudson, Pat Hughes, Mickey Rhea, and Tammi Wood. In 2015, the A&R Committee Members accomplished a considerable amount of valuable work to ensure the state and national participation and to recognize the significant achievements and contributions of our VBCOA colleagues to the continual betterment of the built environment. Thank you and we all look forward to serving the VBCOA Membership in 2016. May 2016 be a most enjoyable and prosperous year for all.
