Eastern Contractors Association continues to support the Capt. John J. McKenna IV Military Courtesy Room at Albany International Airport. Earlier this week, ECA President and CEO Todd Helfrich along with members Tim Whitelaw (Crawford Door & Window Sales) and Graham Henderson (Duncan & Cahill, Inc.) presented a $1000 check to assist with the Courtesy Room’s ongoing operations. The McKenna Courtesy Room provides media entertainment, snacks and support in a comfortable, friendly environment to every member of our military who travels through Albany International Airport. The facility was created through a cooperation of the Albany County Airport Authority and the Tri-County Council of Vietnam Era Veterans. Named in honor of Capt. McKenna who died while aiding one of his Marines in Iraq, the courtesy room has seen over 52,000 servicemen and servicewomen through its doors since opening in 2010. This is ECA’s 12th year supporting the courtesy room.
