EMA was thrilled to participate in Sumner-Bonney Lake School District's first State of the District breakfast this morning. The BLHS Culinary Arts program put on a marvelous breakfast! The Marching band got us going, we were honored to participate in colors and the Star Spangled Banner with the Army JROTC and choir, respectively, and we were well entertained by the Victor Falls Elementary Modern Band. This was all followed up by a very informative and inspiring talk presented by Dr. Laurie Dent, SBLSD’s Superintendent and the 2024 WA State Superintendent of the Year, about the school district’s goals, values, operations, and how it is positioned for the future.

Congratulations to SBLSD on your success and we look forward to being part of all that is to come.

Know. Value. Support.

Thank you to PCS Structural Solutions for doing such a great job putting on their annual Big Hearts Charity Putt-Putt Tournament! This year, EMA was pleased to sponsor a hole on the course. Our team included EMA staff Paul DeMoncada and Kate Brisbois along with Topcon Solutions Store representatives and EMA software suppliers, Brent and Patrick. PCS were gracious hosts, and it was good seeing and catching up with our partners and peers. All our best to the Foundation for Tacoma Students! We look forward to joining again next year.

It is with much regret that we announce the passing of Raymond C. Mow, Managing Principal at Erickson McGovern Architects.

Ray passed away unexpectedly from a heart attack on Saturday, April 8th, 2023.
A valued and considerate manager, peer, friend, expert and man. His optimism and empathy touched all he met. These qualities made him an excellent architect, construction manager, and leader.
Able to understand issues from all sides while keeping the needs of clients and primary users a top priority, he not only created spaces and buildings but enriched the lives of those impacted by his designs.
Respected by the architectural community and loved by the staff at Erickson McGovern, Ray has left a legacy of excellence and care.
He will be greatly missed.
