It is with heavy hearts that we share the news about our member, Dan Fordice of Fordice Construction. Yesterday, our friend and one of the most committed AGC cheerleaders, passed away following a plane crash.

Dan, a Baton Rouge native, served as the national AGC of America president in 2022. He was a great partner and supporter to Louisiana AGC, a passionate philanthropist, a tremendous patriot, and good friend to so many. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Building More Than Just Structures 🏗️
At Louisiana AGC, we believe that true leadership extends far beyond the job site. This week is National Volunteer week & we are incredibly proud to feature our Chapter President, Casey Crawford, as he shares his personal dedication to service and giving back.
In this video produced by AGC of America, Casey discusses why volunteerism is a cornerstone of our industry and how collective effort creates a lasting impact across Louisiana.
"Volunteering isn't just about the hours you put in; it's about the foundation you lay for the next generation." — Casey Crawford
We are honored to have a leader who walks the talk. Thank you, Casey, for your tireless support of our community and for inspiring us all to lend a hand.

Every work zone is more than a construction site. It’s a workplace filled with people whose families are counting on them to return home safely.

Work zone incidents impact both workers and drivers, and improving safety starts with understanding real experiences on the road.

Your insight helps inform advocacy, education, and policies that protect lives.
Take a few minutes to share your perspective and help improve work zone safety.

This is what we love most about the AGC Annual Convention — the people. 💛
Year after year, it's the connections made in these rooms that stick! Old friends reconnecting. New partnerships forming. Young professionals finding their people.
We returned from Orlando this week, and couldn't be more excited to implement some of the new developments we learned while @ the AGC of America convention.
