Well, that is it for another two years,
The trade show was a great success with approximately 400 visitors this year. Of course, we couldn't have done the show without our exhibitors and we received many compliments regarding the variety of the exhibits.
We would like to thank our show sponsors, Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW), International Facilities Management Association (IFMA) and the Institute of Power Engineers (IPE).
We would also like to thank IMPARK for graciously allowing us to use two of their parking lots, so our guests were able to park for free.
Our next show will be on May 12th, 2020. Make sure to mark this date on your phone, blackboard, back of your hand, note pad or Palm Pilots.
