Welcome Message / About the Meeting

Dear Western Region Members and Spouses/Guests,

We are excited to invite you to the 2026 CRSI Western Region Conference, taking place September 9-10 at the Margaritaville Resort in South Lake Tahoe, CA.

Welcome to this year’s Western Region Conference in beautiful South Lake Tahoe. The meeting includes Region Managers’ updates from Kevin and Manny, CRSI’s national update and informative talks from guest speakers.

On Wednesday, September 9 we will kick off the conference with CRSI’s President and CEO Lou Parous giving an overview update on the institute. Followed by a sunset dinner cruise on Lake Tahoe thanks to our Mill Sponsors (CMC, Nucor and Cascade).

On Thursday, September 10 we will start the day off with breakfast followed by a status update from the Western Region Managers, Kevin Bott and Manny Hernandez. Also, we will have a guest speaker from The Division of State Architect (DSA). Immediately following the speaking sessions, members have a choice of golf at the Tahoe Mountain Club Old Greenwood Course or enjoying an afternoon on Lake Tahoe, each for an additional fee.

The conference will conclude with a reception and dinner buffet back at the resort.

We look forward to welcoming you and your guests at South Lake Tahoe!

Kevin Bott, Western Region Manager
Manny Hernandez, Pacific Northwest Region Manager
