The WTBA Holiday Party brought a little warmth to an otherwise frigid early December evening.
More than 100 people filled a ballroom Thursday night in Madison for the party.
The crowd enjoyed food, beverages, prizes, music, and a photo slideshow highlighting events and projects from the past 12 months.

WTBA Executive Director Steve Baas also provided a well-deserved salute to Director of Policy and Finance Kevin Traas, who will step away from WTBA employment at the end of the year, marking the conclusion of 25 years with the association.
Traas and his encyclopedic knowledge of the industry and state budgets will remain an invaluable resource to WTBA in a consultant capacity as we head into 2026 and beyond.
