The Fastest Trowel on the Block Competition, hosted by the Mason Contractors Association of America, is a showcase of industry craftsmanship and a testament of both the speed and skill of our industrys workforce. Only those journeymen masons who have the skill, confidence and courage to face-off with the industrys best are invited to compete. This is a contest that also proves how important teamwork is in accomplishing a final product.

The competition pits journeyman masons, accompanied by their two favorite tenders, against one another in a show of both speed and craftsmanship. Each contestants goal is to complete as much of a 30 foot long long wall as possible, using 8«x8»x16" CMU and the provided mortar in a twenty-minute heat. Contestants must have a high degree of workmanship using normal masonry practices and hand tools.
