For the second year, the Western New York Lumber Dealers Association (WNYLDA) decided to have some laughs celebrating its Annual Meeting on Friday, November 10, at Rochester’s premier comedy club, Comedy @ the Carleson. It was time for some year-end fun, where attendees enjoyed an open bar reception, dinner, the celebration of honorees, and great comedy acts.
The WNYLDA Board of Directors: Nick Tomidy, Glenn Stahl, Jeff Osborne, Dan Klips, Paul Barnes, Jamie Fox, Bow Morse, Doug Fields, Len Moscowitz, Pam Bliss, Christian Brigham, and Ryan Boardman. Not shown: Russ Howe, Josh Schultz, and Michele Wild.
The association honored Bob Burt of Burt’s Building Supply as its Industry Excellence Award recipient. Burt is a second-generation owner who has supported the NRLA and his community in Perry, N.Y., for decades. WNYLDA also honored the top vendors and salespeople of the year, and NRLA President Rita Ferris provided the group with important updates regarding the association and LBM Expo.
