SPEC MIX Inc. has announced the 2012 SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500 Regional Competition Schedule. This series of 16 events taking place throughout North America draws the areas' best masons, possessing the skill, speed and stamina required to battle for the chance to win a new FORD F-250 XLT 4X4 truck and nearly $100,000 in cash and prizes.
The winners of each Regional will go on to compete at the SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500 National Event in Las Vegas in February 2013. It's held during the World of Concrete/World of Masonry trade show, with more than 3,500 cheering spectators awaiting the answer to the question, “Who is the World’s Best Bricklayer?”
Established in 2003 to showcase
the skill and craftsmanship of professional masons, the general description of
the SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500 Regional events is as follows: Each team,
consisting of a mason and a mason tender, will have 60 minutes to complete an
approximately 26-foot, double-wythe brick wall within a defined work area, while
meeting strict quality standards. The winner of each regional
competition will advance on to the National Event in February. Award places are based on the highest brick
counts meeting the quality standards and competition rules.
The SPEC MIX TOP
CRAFTSMAN Award is judged as the most sellable wall meeting a qualifying brick
count. This award is the second-most coveted award at the event, yet for some
winning the SPEC MIX TOP CRAFTSMAN award is the main goal. It has the second-highest award purse at the National event.
