The Professional Construction Estimators Association of America, Inc. 46 th Annual PCEA National Convention April 28 th - May 2 nd Cambria Downtown Asheville 15 Page Avenue Asheville, NC 28801 On behalf of the National PCEA Officers and Board of Directors, I would like to extend an invitation to this year’s 46th PCEA Annual Convention in Asheville, North Carolina. Amidst the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, we will have the opportunity to learn, network and grow as well as take in all the sights and sounds the beautiful area has to offer. The Triangle chapter has worked so diligently to ensure this convention will be safe, fun and informative. I cannot wait to see all there is to come! If you have never been to a convention before, I encourage you to make this year’s your first. There are many opportunities to learn and grow through educational opportunities and professional development, to network through social events and to enjoy everything Asheville has to offer. It will be my great honor to return to the beautiful place I was introduced to this great organization, handing over the gavel to President-Elect Lee Edwards and our new slate of officers. This past year has been nothing short of trying, but I am confident that this next year will prove to be fantastic. Thank you to everyone who has made my year as President a success. I look forward to all that is to come. I will be seeing you all in Asheville in April! Kristen Clarke Free Convention 2020 - 2021 National President Registration!
