You may be thinking about the time, expense and value of attending the Las Vegas StonExpo show. While I have no idea if the show will be worth your time or money, I am convinced that our industry organization the MIA (Marble Institute of America)  http://www.marble-institute.com  is worthy of your support.     

Membership dues are low and the value that the MIA generates for the industry is very high. They are instrumental in providing much-needed education on vital issues that affect everyone in the stone industry.

Many of our readers are not currently members of the MIA. I would urge you to consider membership. The MIA will have a booth at the show. If you have questions, stop by and ask. If you don’t go to the show and have questions, the website has a contact button on the top row.

On behalf of all the people at Braxton-Bragg, we extend our best wishes for a happy and prosperous 2015.

Have a good read.
