2 President’s Message I’m honored to serve as your 2019 TABA President and look forward Trey Hunt to another great year ahead. Special thanks to John McKinney for serving as president this past year. I’d like to welcome our new board members: Drew Carlyle, David Socia, and Will Doran. Also, thank you to all of our board members continuing to serve alongside them.

It’s almost time for the Home Products Show, one of TABA’s largest annual events. I’m pleased to announce that we are sold out of exhibitor booth spaces, so we are expecting a great show! The Home Products Show features exhibitors from all aspects of the home-building industry.

The Home Products Show is a great opportunity to spotlight your business to new customers. If you don’t have a booth, take some time to stop by, see what it’s all about, and start planning for next year! Builders, you can attend for free on Friday night, so be sure to come out and meet other members you could be doing business with.

We hope you will promote the show. Tell your friends, and share the event on Facebook, which you can find on our Facebook page. As always, thanks to our volunteers, sponsors and exhibitors for making this event possible.

Thanks, Trey Hunt TABA President
