I don't need to parrot a lot of what has already been said, but the truth is that I would not miss one. The network of friends that we have built over the years through these conventions is just simply irreplacable. The first one that I attended was when we first started our company almost 15 yrs ago and we had 5 people. I was an apprentice in the apprenticeship program and quickly saw that this was an investment into our future. We are grateful to all of the leaders in our industry for what they have done before us and we have benefitted from their struggles tremendously. We now employ over 100 people and I can honestly say that I don't believe this ever would have happened without the support and apprentice training provided by the AFSA. Each and every year we learn more and the truth is that sometimes the joy is in having opportunities to help out others. If you can't do it, then you can't do it; but for anyone even considering it you will never regret it!

Hardly! Just no lazy river (#1 gripe I heard was "no lazy river?") but the dinner party at the air and space museum wasn't too bad a time :) According to a new friend who will live to hear this for years, they have a flight stimulator there :) too. Priceless. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Church Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 7:22 PM To: sprinklerforum@firesprinkler.org Subject: RE: sizing expansion tanks You could meet someone to sub work to for the week ;) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
