Grant Larsen, president of
Express Construction Co., Inc. is ABC’s volunteer of the month for May.
Express Construction joined ABC in 2002, and since joining, Grant Larsen has been actively involved at ABC in one way or another. Grant Larsen is a firm believer in being active and supporting the association and he has definitely lived up to this.
He is currently finishing up his reign as the chair of the Board of Directors for 2008/2009. Prior to his chair position, Grant was chair of the Membership Council and was responsible for the success of the many groups under the council as well as assisting the chapter in reaching its BHAG (big, hairy, audacious goal) of 500 members. The goal of 500 members was a three-year process that Grant helped support through motivation, attendance at events and holding numerous prospect lunches where he shared the benefits of ABC with non-member companies. His passion for recruiting 11 new members has earned him a spot at the Merit Bronze level in the ABC Beam Club.
Grant has also served as chair of the ABC Retro Committee, chair of the chapter Governance Council, on the Finance Committee, and has served on the Golf Committee.
Grant continues to be active in ABC by carrying a National PAC badge, regularly attending ABC PAC events, participating and attending the Excellence in Construction Awards banquet, the ABC Safety Alliance program, STEP program as well as participating in the DJC Co-op advertising program. From the monthly dinner meetings, annual auction, chapter golf tournament, and free networking events, Grant is always around talking to people about the many benefits of ABC while networking with members.
Grant is a big supporter in the merit shop philosophy and enjoys meeting other members. In April, you can catch Grant as a panelist at the North End Dinner Meeting where he will be talking about his experience with ABC and General vs. Subcontractor relationships.
Grant travels to national events and supports the local chapter by participating and representing ABC of Western Washington to the other 78 chapters and ABC National. We would like to thank Grant Larsen for his many years of amazing support and time to ABC!
