Builders were able to meet in person for the first time in nearly a year in Clearwater Beach, FL. Attendance was expected to be lower than normal due to the pandemic, so NADRA made the decision to live-stream the event. Over 100 members in attendance were thrilled to be together again. Several who were not in attendance sent in personalized video messages. “What a great event! Year after year the level of creativity, vision, and craftsmanship continues to raise the bar,” said Michael Beaudry, NADRA’s executive VP. “Where will you take it next?
