Enter for a chance to win a trip to Roofing Day in D.C. where you can advocate for the industry with Elevate and The Coffee Shops™! 

Back in 2018, National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) CEO and former Wisconsin representative Reid Ribble organized the first Roofing Day after seeing firsthand the importance of industry advocacy days during his time in D.C. This day is an educational networking event that gives contractors: 

• Access to their representatives: Roofing Day (which will be held April 14-15, 2026) is a unique chance to get in the same room with members of Congress and be voice for the industry. This year, NRCA is focused on highlighting the industry’s concerns about workforce challenges and affordable housing. 
• Stronger influence through industry alignment: We are stronger together and Roofing Day is a prime example of that. Last year saw over 250 attendees from over 35 states. This show of collective strength and unity amplifies our voice and the credibility of our concerns to lawmakers.  
• Actionable, positive outcomes: Roofing Day has directly contributed to productive conversations and bipartisan policies aimed at strengthening the roofing workforce and small businesses. 

Roofing is a $100-billion industry employing nearly one million people across the country, and this day is our chance to bring our issues and stories to the top of mind for our country’s policymakers.  

And, here at The Coffee Shops™, we want to help you be a part of Roofing Day 2026! We have partnered with Elevate to sponsor an industry professional at no expense to them. The Roofing Day contest includes:  

• Round trip airfare  
• Two nights hotel

• Dinner with The Coffee Shops and Elevate  
• Special tour to be arranged the day after 

All you have to do to enter is to tell us why Roofing Day matters to you. The winner will be selected on March 13, 2026.
