The Golden Trowel Award Recognition contest and banquet was created in 1989 to recognize and encourage excellence in all phases of masonry construction. Now, this time-honored tradition is the Flagship Awards Event of our industry.  Each year the Texas Masonry Council recognizes outstanding architects, contractors, suppliers, and their masonry projects.  The highly anticipated awards presentation is conducted by master of ceremonies, Spike Cutler.

Projects from around the state competed in 9 categories. Winners from each category first competed at the regional level.  After the winners were selected at the regional level, those winners then proceeded to the state level of competition.  A state golden trowel winner and honorable mention winner were recognized in each category on the evening of the banquet.  Hand-carved stone awards were proudly accepted as 200 guests gathered together to applaud Architects, Masonry Contractors, and Suppliers who have demonstrated excellence in masonry. The Golden Trowel Awards program tradition will continue in 2015 at the annual TMC Convention at the Westin on the Riverwalk, August 5-7, 2015.
