MRCA It’s time to nominate an outstanding member of the industry!

The 2024 McCawley Award nominations are now open and ready for your nominations. 

Do you know someone in the roofing industry who goes above and beyond on and off the job site? Highlight the way they use their time, talent and resources to make outstanding contributions to the industry by nominating them for the McCawley Award. 

The McCawley award was created by the Midwest Roofing Contractors Association (MRCA) to honor James Q. McCawley. Born in 1899 in Glasgow, Scotland, James came from a long line of roofing industry members. When he joined the industry, he was a member of President Roosevelt’s Construction Industry Council and a member of the U.S. Labor Department’s Federal Apprenticeship Committee. 

James was known to be eccentric but dedicated to the industry and took over management of the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) in 1939. In that role, he was able to raise the association’s membership from 10 to 400 in just five years. Beyond his work in America, James supported the international connections in the industry and organized trips in the 1960s that took roofing contractors, roofing manufacturers and other roofing industry personnel to all the major cities in Europe.  

The McCawley Award was first presented in 1969 and recognizes the incredible works James did for the industry. The nomination period for 2024 is now open, closing on July 30, 2024, and there is no fee for nominating. Nominees are not restricted to owners/officers of a roofing firm and are not restricted to individuals located within the geographical area of MRCA Membership. Nominees can also be individuals from Associate Member firms, employees of Member firms, roofing association professionals, architects, engineers, attorneys or public officials. 

To nominate someone, complete the online nomination form. For more information, visit MRCA's website or reach out to Megan Pope
