CRCA Annual Trade Show and Exhibit
Membership Meeting
Thursday, January 21, 2016
Chicago Roofing Contractors Association
Annual Trade Show & ExhibitDOWNLOAD REGISTRATION FORM HERE
For our January meeting, the WRCA is hitting the road!
On January 21 and 22, the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association will be holding its annual tradeshow and seminars. They put on a great show down there and while we’d love to have something in Wisconsin, it makes more sense to take advantage of everything they have to offer. So, we’ve arrange for a bus to take our members and their guests to the Drury Lane Conference Center in Oakbrook Terrace, site of this year’s show!
We’ll have a pick up in the Fox Valley (9:30 a.m.) and another in Oak Creek (11:30 a.m.). Lunch will be served on the bus and you’ll be dropped off at the convention center around 1:30 p.m., giving you about three hours to walk the show. We’ll board the bus again and make our way back to Wisconsin, stopping for dinner before arriving back in Milwaukee (7:30 p.m.) and the Fox Valley (9:30 p.m.)
Please note that you must register separately for the CRCA Trade Show. To register, click HERE (www.crca.org/crca_events/trade.htm). The show is free to attend. Registration through WRCA covers the cost of the bus, gratuity, lunch, dinner, and refreshments on the bus.
The show features over 150 exhibitors. For a listing of vendors as of November 20, click HERE.
We encourage you to come to this informative meeting! Non-Member guests are welcome.

Some of our most highly-attended and talked about programs over the past several years have been the ones when Congressman Reid Ribble has joined us. Always insightful, this will be our last chance to welcome Reid back while he is serving as Wisconsin’s 8th Congressional District. Earlier this year, Congressman Ribble announced that he would not seek reelection and that he would be returning to the private sector.
We hope you’ll join us as we welcome back Congressman Reid Ribble and learn more about his time in Congress, insights into the upcoming elections, and his plans for after he has left office.
And if that’s not enough for you, our meeting will be held at Lambeau Field, likely the most well-known structure within the Congressman’s District and arguably, the most beloved stadium in all of sports! Enter the stadium at the American Family Insurance gate and head to the 4th Floor Indoor Club Rooms for our reception, lunch, and presentation. Following the meeting, you will have the option to tour the Packers’ Hall of Fame (ticket included with your registration) or, if you choose, continue your conversations in one of the bars in the stadium and return to the Hall of Fame at another time. (The meeting itself ends at 1:15 p.m. and the HOF takes 60-90 minutes on a self-guided tour.)
We encourage you to come to this informative meeting!
