WGA Member Testimonials

"I have appreciated the network of people I have met and become friends with. The glazing industry is small, and it is good to know other shops, vendors, and suppliers. It has been a pleasure learning from them and from the dinner meetings focusing on different topics that affect our industry."

Peter Barnhart

Estimator/Project Manager/Manager, Pacific Glass and Door, Inc.

"The best benefit of belonging to the WGA is the opportunity to continue my education about new technology, the products, and the industry as a whole. I enjoy the friendships I've made. The WGA is also a good place for business networking opportunities.​"

Bill Coady, CSI

Architectural Sales Manager, Guardian Industries Corp

"The most important aspect of my WGA membership and involvement is having changed ‘business contacts’ to personal relationships with other business owners/competitors as well as ownership/sales staff of numerous suppliers with whom we interact almost on a daily basis. The opportunity to put a face with a name in an environment outside of day-to-day business… Numerous WGA business contacts have transformed into great friendships… How often do you hear someone refer to a competitor as a trusted friend? This happens at the Washington Glass Association!!​"

Bernie Thueringer

President, Pacific Glass, Inc.

"I appreciate the ability to make vital contacts with salespeople, as well as the cathartic exchange of shared challenges with my fellow glazing contractors.​"
