We had a great time in Dallas for the 2012 SPFA Convention. If you are in the SPF industry in any capacity this Conference is very beneficial. SPFA holds multiple education classes and breakout sessions for anyone in our industry. Early in the week we attended a class on SPF Roof Inspections. We found that in this class, and I am sure that the others are similar, there is overlapping information that you may already have but we came away with some new information that will help us going forward.

We were told that the expo had a 30% increase in attendees this year, and based on the traffic in the convention hall, I certainly don't doubt it. Wednesday's expo hours were full of contractors and consultants visiting vendor booths.

As always, we visited with several of our current AWS Dealers and met many potential new ones. The hospitality from the SPFA was as great as it is every year. Hope to see everyone next year in Jacksonville for 2013.
