Master Builders of Iowa

The 22nd Annual Build Iowa Award Program was held February 2, 2009 at the Polk County Convention Complex in Des Moines, Iowa. Inspired by the Association's motto, the Build Iowa Award is presented annually to the individual who best exemplifies the tenets of our organization: Skill, Integrity & Responsibility. The nominations are judged by the way in which the candidates have performed both within the construction industryand their communities as well. This year's Build Iowa Award was presented to James R. Grabau, R.H. Grabau Construction, Inc., Boone, Iowa. Jim accepted this honor from General Ron Dardis, before an audience of his peers. We thank Jim for his many years of service to the Master Builders of Iowa.
