As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I want to extend my warmest wishes to you and your loved ones. This season offers a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the many things we are grateful for, and at CATT, we are especially thankful for our dedicated members whose ongoing support and engagement strengthen our community every day. I hope your holiday is filled with rest, joy, and safe travels. I would also like to remind everyone that our annual CATT Holiday Party is just around the corner. This event is always a highlight of the year, and we are looking forward to celebrating together. If you haven’t purchased your tickets yet, please be sure to do so soon as space is limited.

In service to one another,

A NOTE ABOUT MEMBER DUES
Dear Valued CATT Members,
Times change, costs rise, and organizations like ours have to keep pace if we want to stay effective. After careful review and no shortage of vigorous debate, CATT will be adjusting membership dues over the next two years.
Starting in 2026, annual dues for existing members will increase by $25, and dues for new members and late renewals after March 31st will increase by $50.
In 2027, we will bring all membership categories to a single, unified rate of $675 per year.
This isn’t a decision made lightly. Everything from insurance, electricity, to staffing, etc. has climbed. If we want CATT to maintain the level of service our industry expects—and frankly deserves—then we must make sure our revenue keeps pace with the demands placed on us. What does this safeguard?
It protects the programs and benefits that set CATT apart things our members rely on and consistently tell us are valuable:
A NOTE ABOUT MEMBER DUES
Regular mixers and networking events that build real business relationships.
Workforce Training, that helps companies run safer, more efficient job sites.
Training and workshops that keep your teams sharp and compliant.
Community events, public policy advocacy, and member support that strengthen our industry’s voice and presence.
These offerings aren’t nice-to-haves they’re the backbone of a strong, connected construction community. Keeping them going requires sustainable funding. This dues adjustment will ensure CATT can continue delivering the services, connections, and representation that matter most to you and your business. Spread out over 12 months at the highest due rate, this represents an increase of approximately $4.00 per month from present dues. We hope you will agree with us that this small increase is worth protecting these services.
We appreciate your understanding and your continued commitment to the association. If you have questions or want to discuss the changes further, our door is always open.
Sincerely,
Edward Vento Executive Director
