58th Annual Spring Convention

Registration Packet

June 22 — 25, 2015

Blue Harbor Resort & Spa

Sheboygan, Wisconsin

Shopping, golf, watersports and charter fishing are just a few

minutes away on foot or by car. Make a sand castle at the

beach, take a long nature walk along the shoreline or try a real

water adventure by sailing, kayaking or stand-up paddleboard-

ing. If fishing or golf is your game, you’re in luck: The resort

has partnered with local charter fishing services as well as The

Bull, a Jack Nicklaus golf course that’s just 10 minutes away.

For those that love to shop, Blue Harbor offers some unex-

pected, delightful choices at The Boutique and its other retail

stores. More shops — as well as an assortment of bars and res-

taurants — are a short walk away at Sheboygan’s quaint Harbor

Centre. Deeper into this family-friendly city, a wide range of

museums and entertainment awaits.

We have reserved a block of rooms at the resort. Our conven-

tion rate for resort rooms is $145 per night plus tax, single or

double occupancy plus a resort amenity fee of $10.00 per day.

It is highly suggested that you book your resort reservations

now! Call the reservations office at 866-701-2583 and refer-

ence the Midwest Insulation Contractors code -- 7AL45L.

Please note that we have blocked a limited number of rooms. If

you wait until the last minute to reserve your room, you run the

risk that our block will be filled, and the resort will not have

any additional rooms available. As we have stated in the past,

if you reserve your hotel room now, you can always cancel it

later, but you may not be able to reserve a room if you wait too

President Lance Pickerign and his wife, Renee, wish to extend a

warm MICA invitation to you to join them as our association

engages in “Getting Involved”. One of the key benefits of be-

longing to MICA is your

ability to work with fel-

low members to improve

your business acumen

and to better your indus-

try. Come and partici-

pate as we share ideas at

our annual convention

this June 22 – 25, 2015,

at one of the Midwest’s

most unique resorts and conference centers; the Blue Harbor

Resort & Spa. Nestled on the western shore of the always-

majestic Lake Michigan, this picturesque and stately home-

away-from-home presents a stunning view all unto itself. With

180 hotel rooms and 64 villas, Blue Harbor offers a wide varie-

ty of accommodations perfect for our annual convention.

Our 58th Annual Spring Convention will be a special event, and

one that you do not want to miss! The convention will follow

a Monday to Thursday pattern that we have used the past

three years. Based on feedback from our members, we have

moved the arrival date from Sunday of Father’s Day to Mon-

day. This will allow our members to possibly spend Father’s

Day at home with family and friends.

The location of this year’s meeting is designed to allow those of

you who would like to extend the meeting into a vacation time

for the entire family to do so. At Blue Harbor, you have both

Lake Michigan and the Sheboygan River in your back yard.

Recreation activities are diverse, whether it’s a rollicking visit

to the year-round indoor waterpark and mini-golf course or a

relaxing stroll on one of the eco-friendly lakeshore trails. When

you’re at The Blue, relaxation, fun and comfort are intertwined.

The resort restaurants include the premier Latitude 43 or casual

Beacon, all with extraordinary views. Treat yourself to the ex-

pertise and personalized care available at Reflections Spa.

long. We will be monitoring our block and making room ad-

justments accordingly. Our block of rooms will be released

on May 21, 2015, but if you wait until May 21st, the block of

rooms will be filled, and we may not be able to accommodate

your needs.

The Board of Directors is most excited about the technical top-

ics and speakers for the spring convention. The topics and

speakers were selected to help educate and inform you on a

variety of industry topics pertinent to our current business cli-

mate. We are going to have presentations that cover a wide

array of topics that will help you grow your knowledge as a

business professional. We will have an opening presentation on

“Sifting Through the Generational Drama...Reviving the

Fascination We Once Had for Our Differences”. As the ba-

by boomers age and the younger generation of people move

into the workplace, the need for understanding generational

differences is crucial for business survival. Our keynote speak-

er, Ms. Karrie Landsverk, Partner and Director of Education

with AmericanWay University in Portage, WI, will address this

topic in an entertaining and educational morning session. Dr.

Linda Goldenhar, Director of Research and Evaluation at

CPWR: The Center for Construction Research and Training,

will give us her insight on improving our company’s safety

culture with her presentation on, “Making a Positive Differ-

ence in Construction Safety and Health by Improving Safe-

ty Culture, Safety Climate, & Safety Leadership”. Gary

Auman will provide an extended update on OSHA require-

ments that will include a discussion on how to document re-

cordables properly as well as other recordkeeping and report-

ing issues. We will hear from Alec Rexroat as he provides an

enlighten presentation on the efforts of the Labor Manage-

ment Trust to promote the mechanical insulation industry to a

national audience. You will be updated on the new MICA

plates that have been added to the 7th edition of the National

Commercial & Industrial Insulation Standards manual in 2015.

Mr. J. Kenneth Freeman, NIA President for 2015 – 2016, will

give us an update on our industry activities at the national

level.

We will have a union contractor forum, an open shop con-

tractor forum, and an associate member forum all running

simultaneously. This approach allows more of the members to

participate in craft issues without being part of a formal com-

mittee. This spring, neither the labor committee nor the merit

shop committee will formally meet during the convention. This

format will give each of you the opportunity to interact with

other MICA members with similar business concerns. The as-

sociate member forum will discuss several issues of interest to

our associate members regarding their membership status in

MICA.

In June, we will recognize those companies that participated in

our tenth annual “Best Practices in Safety” Award. This

award was established to formally recognize our member firms’

efforts in safety and safety practices. This year, we again use

the changes that we made to the “Best Practices in Safety”

Award program. We will use the grading system that recogniz-

es each applicant’s achievement in developing a quality safety

program. With this system, companies are not competing

against each other for awards. Instead each applicant will try to

achieve the highest award level where multiple applicants can

receive the same award level. On our second day of meetings,

representatives of the participating firms will meet in a

roundtable discussion on safety. They will share with us their

efforts in promoting safety and establishing best practices in

safety.

The Board of Directors feels that each presentation will add

value to your understanding of the technical topics discussed.

You will come away from the convention more informed and

better prepared to successfully manage your business. It is the

Board’s intent to make this convention attractive to our mem-

bership in its location, cost and program content. In this light,

our registration fee has been adjusted to encourage additional

member participation. The registration fee is $515.00 for the

first attendee from a member company. Registration for all

additional attendees from a given company is reduced to $490.

The registration fee is $915.00 for the first member and spouse

registered from a member company. Registration for all addi-

tional registered couples from a given company is reduced to

$890. This year we have included a children’s registration for

the Welcome Reception and Farewell Brunch events only.

The fee is $50-$100.00 per child. The Board is delighted to

offer this new incentive for multiple attendees from member

companies. The benefit of joining an association comes from

participating in association activities.

The seventeenth annual “Mick Van Horn Memorial Golf

Tournament” is set for Tuesday afternoon, June 23, 2015, at

The Bull Golf Course at Pinehurst Farms. We have a shotgun

start set for 1:00 p.m. The Bull is a Jack Nicklaus designed

Signature Course, and was Ranked #70 Public Golf Course in

America (Golf Digest 2015-2016). The course is about a 30

minute drive from our host hotel, and a shuttle will be provided.

As you would expect, there is plenty of water on the course, so

you have a great chance to win the coveted “Fish Award” that

was a favorite trophy of Mick’s. We will complete Tuesday’s

technical program early enough to allow you plenty of time to

get to the course. We still have the four-person scramble for-

mat for you to enjoy. This year’s fee is $140.00 per golfer,

which includes a shuttle to and from the course, The Bull’s

Wisconsin Burger & Brat Buffet, cart, green fees, complimen-

tary use of practice and range area, and of course, prizes.

Please read the golf registration carefully. Payment for golf
