Home builders learn lessons

at California conference

Q: You and Vernon McKown, Ideal Homes’ co-owner and president of sales, attended the Pacific Coast Builders Conference in San Francisco June 17-19. What were Oklahoma builders doing in San Francisco at a California building conference?

A: To begin with, we’re big believers in education. We can’t get enough of it. Interestingly enough,

Vernon McKown presented at (the conference) on

energy-efficient building once or twice in the past. He came back and raved about the creative environment. Now it has kind of become a midyear refueling. I’d like to see a larger contingent of Oklahoma builders make the trip. It’s unique because they bring in many presenters who work outside of our industry and really stretch your mind.
