Tuesday, April 26, 2016 – Saturday, April 30, 2016 – HoistCam is excited to announce plans to attend the 2016 SC&RA Annual Conference, which is to be held during the last week of April in Orlando, Florida. According to the website, “This premier event for the Association is held in April and attracts owners, CEO’s, top managers and leaders in the industry. Highlights include education sessions by well-known authors and speakers, committee meetings, receptions and numerous networking opportunities, golf and tennis tournaments, a fundraising gala, the renowned Job of the Year competition, safety awards and a Products Fair.”
Various contests will be held during this event. These activities give your company the chance to show your customers, competitors, and colleagues the skill level of your employees. By entering the SC&RA’s annual awards competition, you can flaunt your talents and show off your company’s skills. Of course, winning one of the events would boost your prestige in the your industry as well as promote your business to potential customers, suppliers, and more. There are several of these events. In order to win the Job of the Year Competition, you must be present, although attendance is not necessary too win the Safety Awards. Here is a list of the available awards:

Of course, there is much more to the SC&RA event than winning awards. According to Brett Berard of Berard Transportation, “The difference with SC&RA is the ability to meet with other key players and companies just like ourselves. From owners to general managers to operation managers that have a strong investment with their company, a lifelong investment. When we can get together in a situation like the Annual Conference and discuss the problems within our industry — we can combat them more efficiently as a team than individually, it makes for a great success for our industry as a whole.”
