The ECA President's Party & Holiday Celebration was held on December 11, 2021.

The ECA held its President's Party & Holiday Celebration on Saturday, December 11, 2021 at the Godfrey Hotel in Chicago.  This event was well attended.  Highlights of the event included a special recognition of ECA member firm, Midwest Interstate Electrical Construction Company and members enjoyed the live music performed by “Maggie Speaks.”  Midwest Interstate celebrated its 50^th Anniversary as a NECA member.  The Membership Recognition plaque was given to Jack Shannon and Mike Arvesen.  Another highlight included surprise  musical guests: Otis Wilson and Dan Hampton, Chicago Bears’ Superbowl Champion alumni!  Otis Wilson sang his Motown’s hits from The Temptations and Smokey Robinson, and Hampton rocked the crowd to Eddie Money and John Mellencamp.  Members also received a signed copy of Otis Wilson’s book, “If These Walls Could Talk:  Chicago Bears:  Stories from the Chicago Bears Sideline, Locker Room, and Press Box.”  We thank all that were able to attend and enjoy the festivities!
