With that, we are pleased to announce Political Cartoonist, Steve Breen as our guest speaker this year. Steve was born in Los Angeles in 1970 and raised in Orange County. Steve received a degree in political science in 1992 from the University of California at Riverside.

Steve's children's books include: Stick, Violet the Pilot, Pug and Doug, Woodpecker Wants a
Waffle, and Henry McHenry. The Annual Meeting also offers "Active Members" the important task of electing individuals to fill open seats on the Board of Directors. Year round, this elected AGC leadership makes decisions on your behalf that influence local infrastructure funding, industry practices, public policy, and politics. In addition to the election of members to the Board of Directors, AGC San Diego will present the AGC's 2018 Annual Report, detailing the activities and finances of the AGC. This will include acknowledging our dedicated members who are the backbone of the San Diego chapter; our chairmen and chairwomen who head up the many AGC committees.
