Associated Builders and Contractors, Greater Michigan Chapter Kicks off Women In Construction Week with a Fashion Show
 
  

Associated Builders & Contractors Greater Michigan Chapter (ABC-GMC) will host its second annual ABC Fashion Show Saturday, March 4, kicking off Women In Construction Week. This event shows appreciation to the women who have taken the bold step to enter the construction industry and also encourages those to consider a career in construction. 
 
The Fashion Show is set for 7-9 pm March 4 at the Pere Marquette Depot, downtown Bay City. Working in a male-dominated industry, ABC Greater Michigan will highlight all of the great initiatives and work of women within the industry and those in the community who support it. The event also highlights the opportunities available to women in construction and the many career options available.
 
Attendees will receive appetizers, an open bar, networking opportunities with community leaders/women in construction, a fashion show presented by Ferne Boutique, and shopping.
 
This event, open to males and females, is more than a fashion show.
“It gives us a chance to honor the women who are in the industry, support the industry and have family in the industry. We are proud of the women who take a bold step to work in construction as it is predominantly filled with men,” said Cathy Geiger, director of marketing and community affairs at ABC Greater Michigan and event organizer.
