Charleston, WV, April 20, 2015– On April 17, 2015 at the Builders Supply Association of WV 102^nd Annual Meeting, the Bonnie M Harold Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Michael Dougan. 

The Bonnie M Harold Lifetime Achievement Award has been set up in honor of Bonnie M. Harold.  Bonnie Harold, retired Executive Director and long-standing member of the Builders Supply Association of WV for over 40 years.  The Bonnie M. Harold Lifetime Achievement Award was named in her honor for her remarkable guidance and endless effort in support of the Builders Supply Association of WV.

 The award was presented with a short speech by Jim Fichtelman stating: “Mike, has shown remarkable guidance and endless effort in support of the Builders Supply Association of WV”.  The presentation of the plague was given by Mike’s son, Robert and his in-laws Stan and Susie Wassick.  In addition to many members of the association, Kim Dougan , Mike’s wife were in attendance to see this great honor presented to a stunned and shocked recipient.  

As Mike accepted the award a standing ovation was given by the crowd.  Congratulations! Mike. 

The General Membership of the Association elected a new Board of Directors on April 11-13, 2014 during the 101^st Annual meeting. The focus of “reengaging the building materials dealers” was apparent during the election and nomination process. “We need a driving force to reengage the Building Materials Dealers and to rekindle their interest,” stated the association executive, Dale Hill.

For years the Building Materials Dealers were the driving force behind the association but have been the silent majority for the past several years. The associations staff has made a commitment to concentrate on building material industry issues and to provide a much needed industry voice in West Virginia. In addition, the association is developing a new “industry/member survey” to assist in achieving this goal.

President – Sammy Geso
Vice President – Cathy Daniels
Secretary/Treasurer – Tom Cook
Concrete Committee Chairman – Jim Fichtelman
Northern Region Directors – DeWayne McCartney, Marc Mauzy

Program Guidelines: “How does the program work?”

Step 1 – Your company shall establish a safety coordinator to oversee the program and maintain company records (no member company records shall be maintained by the BSA). Along with the coordinator, team leaders shall be established to conduct the weekly safety meetings (this person may be a member of management or a lead/mentor employee who sets the standards for others to follow).

Step 2 – Each week, (Wednesday), via email the safety coordinator as well as the team leaders shall receive from the BSA office all information and topics necessary to conduct the weekly meeting (additional copies for each attendee shall be made at member site). The team leaders shall then have one week from the date received to log their meeting completion notice with the respective company coordinator. This one week period allows time to schedule around peak production times.
