In order to facilitate the learning process, the School System has asked Buckley & Associates to meet with all local contractors, sub-contractors or other construction related businesses interested in the construction bidding process. This meeting will help to answer questions on qualification guidelines, paperwork submission, etc.
The meeting with Buckley & Associates is scheduled for Tuesday, August 18th from 1:30 pm - 3 pm and will be held at the Camden County High School Lecture Hall off Wildcat Drive. All Camden County contractors, etc. are encouraged to attend this very informative meeting.
