The year was started with the PWOF association’s Florida tow show, an absolute success showing that owners were ready to hit the market after 16+ months of covid. With the Empire State show, Vegas, and others following show, the industry is showing a growing resurgence in the market. Don’t get me wrong I certainly understand we are all still burdened by looming shortages across the board. The fellowship enjoyed, relationships made, time spent gaining knowledge will help us forge through these trying times!
I arrive in Mason, Ohio at the Great Wolf Lodge and there was a cool snap in the air, and beautiful blue skies! There was no better time to have a show! Some of the nation’s top product and service providers descended on Mason, Ohio, and the Great Wolf Lodge Sept 26th for a weekend of fellowship education, replenishing and acquiring assets have been needed after a tough season through covid. TRAO did a fantastic job top to bottom on this show. The Midwest regional is truly a family show.
TRAO hosted trick a treating party, and interactive programs for the kids while mom and dad had time to enjoy the show. TRAO association hosted a Candlelight vigil honoring our fallen men & women and was a touching memorial not to be missed. The traffic was steady Friday & Saturday to very busy at times.
I walked the show and was very excited to gain feedback from all the vendors that I spoke with. The show is very important not only for meeting with friends and customers, but for the good it does for the industry. TRAO uses the proceeds from the show to fund driver training, lobby for legislation, and improve driver safety throughout their state! The only sad news to report is that any companies that missed this show this year, missed a Baltimore like experience per many vendor quotes! Make sure you get your booth early for the 2023 Midwest Regional, I promise you will not want to miss it
