Need directions to Grand Rapids?

I am starting to hear some promising news from customers and suppliers that 2010 is looking to be up 10-20% this year!  We will not achieve the numbers we did in the boom years. At least we are taking the first step in the right direction. Do you want to learn about the latest metal finishing trends, new processes and equipment? Go to Sur/Fin 2010 in Grand Rapids, MI.  Please click on this video about Sur/Fin 2010 and Grand Rapids, make sure your speakers are on! www.meetgrandrapids.com/surfin.php
This year we have some very exciting changes and keynote speakers . First show hours on Tuesday will be their usual time, but on Wednesday we have new hours. We will close the the show from 2-5 pm. At 5-6:30pm we will have the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) 3- member panel discussing many of the challenges of the automotive industry and where it is going in the future including a discussion on  electric cars.  After the panel we will  open the exhibits until 9 pm and have our industry event night on the show floor. Thursday  morning we will have USCAR  discuss their latest initiatives and that afternoon we will have a plant tour at Amway just 15 minutes away from  the convention center.
Monday afternoon we start off with a golf outing with the local NASF Grand Rapids branch. Two new progarm changes we are most excited about are one; Dept. Of Defense will conduct a Militarty Vehicle Workshop as  part of the Technical conference program. The other  change is the West Michigan Chemical Coaters Association  Intl ( CCAI) will be holding a 4 hour program on powder coating and e-coating on Tuesday. We are also going to have Dr. Kenneth Mayland return to Sur/Fin to discuss the latest on the economy and what the future holds. To learn more go to www.nasf.org .
