The National Steering Committee (NSC) for the Concrete Industry Management (CIM) program—a business-intensive program that awards students with a four-year Bachelor of Science degree in Concrete Industry Management—raised more than $1.75 million in gross revenue at its annual auction, which was held in conjunction with the World of Concrete in January.
CIM Auction Committee Chairman Ben Robuck says given the value of the items donated and the participation level, this year’s auction marked a tremendous success. This year, donated items included a concrete mixer truck, donated by Mack® Trucks and Revolution Concrete Mixers; a concrete pump donated by Alliance Concrete Pumps, Papé Kenworth and Kenworth; a concrete mixer truck donated by Peterbilt Motors Company and Con-Tech Manufacturing; and an S-485 Laser Screed® donated by Somero Enterprises.
Live and silent auction items included cement, fly ash, aggregate, concrete saws, drills, safety equipment, training sessions, reference books and software subscriptions, sports travel packages, golf and vacation travel packages, and more.
