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 — is seeking donations for its 2020 CIM Auction to be held at World of Concrete. The auction is scheduled for Feb. 5 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The silent auction will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the live auction begins at 1 p.m.

"The proceeds from the 2020 CIM Auction will benefit the CIM National Steering Committee [NSC] and support the current CIM programs at Middle Tennessee State University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Texas State University and California State University — Chico, the Executive MBA program, as well as help fund scholarships," said Ben Robuck, chairman of the CIM auction committee.

The CIM Auction organizers are hoping for another record event in 2020. According to CIM Marketing Committee Chairman Brian Gallagher, the 2019 auction was the best ever, raising a record-breaking $1.2 million in gross revenue.

"The annual CIM Auction is a critical funding mechanism for the CIM NSC," said Gallagher. "We've been blessed with tremendous support from the concrete industry and the World of Concrete Show Management has been an amazing partner."

World of Concrete exhibits are open from Feb. 4 to 7 and seminars run Feb. 3 to 7.

Previous auction items have included concrete mixer trucks, cement, skid steers, concrete saws, drills, mixers, vibrators, scaffolding, safety equipment, screeds, fiber transport systems, dust collectors, NDT equipment, decorative concrete tools, water meters, pumps, generators, training sessions, reference books, advertisements, laptop computers, mobile computers, sports memorabilia, sports travel packages, golf packages and vacation travel packages.

Those interested in making a donation should contact CIM Auction Committee Chairman Ben Robuck at ben.robuck@cemex.com or 404/456-6867.
