Have you gotten an email offering a list of IBS attendees, local builders/tradespeople, or similar?
Outside marketing companies have been emailing members offering lists with the contact info of IBS attendees, local builders or tradespeople, and even HBRA members for a fee.
These emails are a SCAM.
The HBRA will NEVER give out our member list to an outside company, and would certainly not allow them to charge for it.
While the marketing company may give out their own list of local builders claiming the information is from us, it is not our member list and we have no control over the information included or who they reach out to.

Plus, drinks sponsored by some of our VIP Partners: California Closets, East Haven & Ridgefield Building Supply, Pella Windows & Doors, Superior Hearth Spas & Leisure, Tooher-Ferraris Insurance, and Acadia Insurance.

Recap
MEMBER EVENTS
The 2025 annual HBRA Golf Classic, presented by Ring’s End, broke every record this year! Both our 18 and 9 hole tournaments sold out (a first for the 9 hole!), and we had some of the best weather ever.
The top three foursomes on the 18-hole course all had a score of 53, and the winners were determined by a match of cards. Congratulations to our winners:
• 1st Place: National Lumber Inc. (Rich Greenawalt, Jay Tenney, Steve Lecher, Anthony Sillo)
• 2nd Place: East Haven & Ridgefield Building Supply (Chris Daley, Shawn Dennis, Joe Early, Guest)
• 3rd Place: Connecticut Lighting Centers Inc. (Todd Director, Brett Director, Brian Mikulski, Brian Cyr)
Congratulations also to the winners of our 9-hole tournament: Huber Engineered Woods (Matt McCammitt, Todd Zimmerman, Mike Nihill, Mike Trede)
Our Putting Contest featured a 3-way tie: congratulations to our three finalists and winners, Rob Dauphin (Ring’s End), Tony Pion (Andersen Corp.), Luigi Tevolini (County TV).
Among our raffle winners, some highlights include Lauren Luskey (ABC Stone) taking home $880 as the winner of our 50/50 raffle and Jason Breza walking out with a brand new TV donated by County TV & Appliance, among many others!
A portion of all proceeds from this year’s tournament will go to support the HBRA’s partnership with The Circle of Care and will be used by the HBRA’s Professional Women in Building Council to design and build room makeovers for children undergoing pediatric cancer treatment – CLICK HERE to learn more.
This event would not have been possible without the hard work of our Golf Committee: Geoff Knapp, Antonio Stella, Krystal Day, Lauren Luskey, Len Volpe, Michael DeRosa, Paul Welte, and Robin Faller.
A huge thank you to every single volunteer who helped with set-up, registration, and out on the course to make the tournament run smoothly and be a great day for all!
Our event sponsors provided great giveaways for the golfers, snacks, beverages, and so much more – we couldn’t do this event without you!
Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2025 Golf Classic – we hope to see you next year!

Chance of Government Shutdown Grows as Senate Fails to Pass Stopgap Spending Bills
In two votes today, the Senate blocked Republicanled and Democratic-led plans to keep the government funded, increasing the odds that a government shutdown will occur at 12:01 a.m. on Oct. 1.
Prior to the votes, NAHB sent a letter to the full Senate urging lawmakers to pass a plan that would extend government funding and authorization of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) through Nov. 21. Without a government extension, the NFIP is set to expire on Oct. 1.

Women Represent Highest Share of Construction Industry Personnel in 20 Years

Share of Women in Construction Bounces Back
The share of female construction employees has increased every year since 2012, showing a sharp rebuild since the losses following the 2008 Great Recession.Read More
What the Fed Rate Cuts Mean for Housing and the Economy
After keeping rates steady through most of 2025, the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy committee (FOMC) voted at its September meeting to cut its key interest rate by 25 basis points, bringing the target federal funds rate down to 4.25%.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell called it a “risk management cut” — a move meant to guard against growing uncertainty, rather than a response to a clear economic downturn. The decision follows signs of a cooling job market and moderating inflation. Job growth has slowed, unemployment has edged up (though it remains low), and inflation, while still above target, has been relatively contained.

EBuilder confidence in the market for newly built single-family homes was 32 in September, unchanged from the August reading, according to the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI) released today. While builder sentiment has hovered at a relatively low reading between 32 and 34 since May, builders expressed optimism that a more favorable interest rate climate could bring hesitant buyers off the sidelines in the final quarter of 2025.

In an era where skilled labor is in high demand, introducing high school students to trade careers through Pathways to Construction Trades is both timely and essential This initiative aims to bridge the gap between education and industry by providing students with hands-on experience and exposure to fields such as carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, and more. By engaging students early, this program not only equips them with valuable practical skills but also opens doors to lucrative career pathways that do not necessarily require a traditional four-year college degree. The program is designed to meet the needs of students with diverse interests and learning styles, fostering a sense of accomplishment and purpose through real-world applications.
Moreover, this workforce development initiative addresses a critical workforce shortage in the trades, creating a sustainable pipeline of skilled professionals for industries facing aging workforces and increasing demand By collaborating with local businesses, trades, and educators, the program ensures students receive industryrelevant training and mentorship. Pathways to Construction Trades not only empowers students to achieve economic independence but also strengthens the community by investing in its future workforce
