February 03, 2011

The IFAI-Tent Rental Division (TRD) Tent Expo 2011 was recently held at Tradewinds Resort in St. Pete Beach, FL January 24-27. This year’s theme “Work Hard- Play Hard” could have easily been changed to “Don’t mess with mother nature”

The show kicked Monday morning with the usual training sessions and seminars followed by the TRD annual golf outing. Most tent manufactures spent Monday afternoon driving stakes and setting baseplates getting ready for the 8:00am tent installation scheduled for Tuesday morning.
