SMACNA-Western Washington

Today, we remember and honor those who gave their lives in service to our country 🇺🇸

Because of their bravery and sacrifice, we're able to enjoy a long holiday weekend with family and friends. Grateful to our nation's heroes — today and always.

Today we celebrate the moms who do it all — at home, at work and everywhere in between 💖 Thank you for the strength and love you bring to everything you do. Happy Mother’s Day!

This week, we're proud to join many industry organizations — including Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association (SMACNA), Sheet Metal Air Rail and Transportation Workers (SMART), Heavy Metal Summer Experience and others — in celebrating National Careers in Trades Week!

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, skilled trades are projected to experience faster-than-average job growth through 2034, with an estimated 600,000 construction openings each year. Why? Because our industry is innovative, collaborative, fast-paced, high-paying, and makes a real impact.

At SMACNA-WW, we’re committed to bringing the highest quality workmanship to our region — and that means investing in the next generation of trade professionals. Through programs like our Executive Education Institute and other industry-leading training, we equip foremen and contractors with the skills, knowledge and leadership tools to tackle the challenges of today and prepare for the opportunities of tomorrow.

The trades aren't just jobs. They're careers with purpose, growth and impact!

Hoppy Easter from SMACNA-Western Washington! 🐣

We hope your day is egg-citing, sweet and filled with fun. Take a little time to relax and enjoy the holiday!

Earlier this week, we hosted a WIC Week event with 18 local contractor women members in attendance! It was a great opportunity to connect, recharge and celebrate the women in our industry.

The day began with a relaxing yoga and stretching session, complete with SMACNA yoga mats, towels and socks. Afterward, everyone took part in a daffodil planting activity. It was a fun (and surprisingly challenging!) hands-on project symbolizing growth and renewal.

Lunch was served, giving everyone time to network and build connections. Thanks to everyone who joined us and helped make it a great event!

SMACNA-Western Washington is proud to celebrate Women in Construction (WIC) Week! 💪

Women strengthen our industry every day, bringing fresh perspectives, strong collaboration and skilled leadership that drive productivity and innovation across our workforce.

Tomorrow, we're kicking off celebrations with a wellness gathering for the women of SMACNA-WW to connect, recharge and celebrate the impact they make on our industry. Here’s to building a stronger future together!

Enjoy all the celebrations of the season, and cheers to a bright year ahead. Happy New Year! 🎉

"Sleigh" the holiday season with plenty of cheer and festive fun!

Merry Christmas from the SMACNA-WW team 🎅🎄
