The Southern Cypress Manufacturers Association (SCMA) held its 2019 Mid-Year Meeting in Norfolk, Va. on Sept. 24, as part of the Hardwood Manufacturers Association’s (HMA) 2019 South Atlantic Regional Meeting.
The meeting included 24 attendees representing SCMA member companies, promotion sponsors, and staff who received an update on the association’s 2019–2020 promotion campaign, previewed upcoming projects, and discussed other business matters—including grade rule update suggestions and committee tasks.
