Past Board Chairs
Since its inception in 1931, the Edmonton Construction Association has been guided by elder statesmen and - women who served their industry in exceptional fashion.
Each August, the Kehoe Classic gathers current ECA Directors and Staff, Past Board Chairs and Directors, Claude Alston Award recipients, family, friends, and distinguished guests, to celebrate the incalculable contribution of many generations of ECA leaders. The event is named in honour of Larry Kehoe, whose decades of service to the ECA, ACA, and CCA set a standard for dedicated service that continues to inspire.
