In May 2017 the ASA-HC Board of Directors gathered for a two-day strategic planning and team building session. The outcome of that meeting was a three year set of goals that will help the organization continue on its path of success.
On Saturday, Jun. 3, ASA-HC held its 12th annual Fiesta on the Beach at AIA's annual Sandcastle Competition on East Beach in Galveston. The members-only event offers free food and drinks and a cool, shady place to relax during the competition.
A HUGE thank you to the committee that puts this event together, the great crew that comes down on Friday to do the set up and works throughout Saturday to make the event possible, and the individuals who volunteer and hour or more of their time at the event to serve food and drinks to others. This event would not be possible without all of the individuals and companies that support this event!

In conjunction with OSHA's National Safety Stand-Down week May 8-12, 2017, ASA-HC encouraged all members to do safety stand-downs on their jobsites and in their offices. A Safety Stand-Down is a voluntary event for employers to talk directly to employees about "Fall Hazards" and to reinforce the importance of "Fall Prevention." The purpose of OSHA's National Fall Prevention Stand-Down is to raise awareness of preventing fall hazards in construction.
Reported: 12,017 individuals from 34 ASA-HC member companies reported participating in Safety Stand-Downs across the city during OSHA's National Safety Stand-Down week May 8-12, 2017.
