Events
Twin Cities Chapter

CFMA's Twin Cities Chapter holds regular meetings throughout the year designed to provide the construction professional with useful and entertaining presentations on a variety of topics.  General meetings take place every other month with guest speakers on general interest subjects, including economic forecasts, political personalities and governance and planning issues.  Peer group meetings are held in alternating months on practical construction accounting topics.  The Chapter tours a major construction site every spring and the summer is rounded out with a Summer Social and the Annual Golf Tournament.  In the late fall we have started an all-day learning event called "CFMA Day."  All meetings provide great opportunities for networking with colleagues in the construction industry.
