We can’t do that without all of you and without our valued Pavement Advisory Board.

We welcome seven new members for 2022 and thank them for their dedication to the industry. • Gabe Vitale, Sweeping Industry Veteran • Mauro Comuzzi, The Paving Lady • Jim Panzenhagen, JMP Excelsior Services • Michael Nawa, Flat Nickel Management • Marvin Joles, Wis-Coat Asphalt Maintenance • Warren Johnson, Clear Choice Sealing • Debbie Jacketta, Jacketta Sweeping Services You can find all members to the right of this column in our masthead.
