BuildUp Apprentices

05/29/2026

Yesterday BuildUp Apprentices held our inaugural Golf Tournament and it was an incredible success! Our Union Trades and Community partners showed up and showed out to support our efforts to raise money for our WA State apprentices.

A few years ago Heather Kurtenbach had a vision- make sure that every apprentice coming from nothing had access to at least a decent pair of boots.... and from that vision has exploded into an incredible organization that's changed countless lives of our next generation of trades men and women!

Thank you to everyone who showed up yesterday to golf, our vendor partners, contractors, all our sponsors who supported our efforts, supported our apprentices ... and had an absolute blast with us!

We can’t wait for next year to be bigger and better!!

Congrats to the Western Washington Masonry Trades Apprenticeship and their contest last Saturday.

The skill, focus, and pride on display say everything about where our BAC trades are at right now.
