Convention 2009

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

It’s back to business as usual here in Basement Systems after a hectic week.  We played host to around 500 dealers for this year’s Basement Systems Convention.  We divided our time between our company headquarters in Seymour, Connecticut, and the Hartford Marriott.  Dealers sat in on classes and trainings to learn new skills and hear about new products.

There was also a dinner cruise along the Connecticut River, a music-themed party at the convention center in Hartford, and an awards ceremony at the Bushnell in Hartford featuring this year’s inspirational guest speaker, Nick Vujicic.

A great time was had by all!
