Some new faces joined WTBA’s Board of Directors during its meeting April 4, adding their unique perspectives and expertise in the process.

Members unanimously elected Brian Endres to the Board.  Endres is Vice President of Manufacturing with The Walbec Group and has been with the company since 1997.  He will complete the remainder of Summer Strand’s term due to Strand’s departure this winter for the state’s Public Service Commission.  The Board later approved Endres to the office of 1st Vice President (Strand’s former role) when it voted on officers for the 2023 year.

Board members also welcomed new Associate Council Chair Travis Wise and WTBA of Tomorrow Chair Matt Golden.

Wise is Vice President and General Manager of Wingra Stone in Madison.  Golden is the Madison-Area Manager for Edgerton Contractors.

Wise and Golden both had the chance to update the Board on their respective committees’ progress through the first few months of the year.
