MEMBERSHIP Entering 2021, the status of several members was unknown. The previous year provided challenges to large and small companies in every category of membership—so how many members would resign and how many new companies would join? The Board of Directors endorsed several efforts to support current members and attract new members. These included reducing tonnage fees by one penny, providing VAA-sponsored online marketing opportunities (i.e., Innovation Connections), planning a low-cost annual meeting and MidAtlantic Asphalt Expo & Conference, and continuing the membership incentive program. By the end of the year, VAA had seen 12 companies resign. However, VAA welcomed 16 members to the family. For the first time in over a decade, four producer contractor members joined, and a fifth had submitted an application for membership in late December. Along with new producers, VAA had 12 affiliate member companies join. As a result, the VAA family grew to 128.
