MRCA Announces Regional Conference Location

The 2009 MRCA Regional Conferences will be held in five selected locations to provide a widespread opportunity for roofing contractors. 

Locations: (tentative)
Minneapolis - January 21, 2009
Ames, Iowa - IRCA/MRCA, January 29-30, 2009
Oklahoma City - February 11-12, 2009
Indianapolis - February 16-17, 2009
Ft. Worth, Texas - September 2-3, 2009

The MRCA events committee has put together an exciting package of education sessions, along with tabletop displays by local manufacturers and suppliers of roofing products and services. The conference is expected to attract over 200 roofing contractors from within a 150+ mile radius of the choice locations.

The tabletop display area is adjacent to the education classroom setting, in most situations, to allow ample time for all of the roofing professionals to network, throughout the course of the day. The Regional Conference tabletop area is limited and will be sold on a first-come, first-serve basis. Complete information is available on the Regional Conference page of the Supplier section at http://www.mrca.org/.

Sponsorships are available for a limited number of events.  All sponsors will receive passes for architects and building owners (based on sponsorship amount), conference acknowledgment and post-conference coverage in the 2009 Midwest Roofer, and on-site conference signage and in Web site recognition. Sponsor ribbons will be available for company exhibitor personnel at registration.

MRCA held a series of regional conferences in 2008.  The conferences provided a terrific opportunity for MRCA to meet the needs of its contractors by providing education programs directly targeted toward local industry needs and for suppliers and manufacturers to meet area customers and prospective customers.  We believe you'll find this a great avenue to connect with your market base.  There are many ways to be involved.

Each exhibiting company will receive two (2) booth personnel badges PLUS two (2) FREE passes per booth (value of $99 each) to be given to a roofing contractor in the area. Exhibitors may purchase additional attendee passes for $75 each.
