"I thoroughly enjoyed myself and learned a
lot in the process. With a wealth of products
and knowledge all in one place, it is diffi cult
not to fi nd something to bring back and
implement for improved plant reliability."
- JACOB WILCOX, ROQUETTE AMERICA INC.
A number of conference delegates also ventured to
the nearby Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum
to learn about the history and signifi cance of rock
and roll music.
The two evening receptions allowed attendees to
network and mingle with other industry leaders in
a relaxed atmosphere while enjoying some good
music, drinks and hors d'oeuvres.
"This was a great way to interact with many people
from around the country with similar job interests,
as well as an opportunity to listen to many pros in
similar fi elds in a short period of time," noted Charlie
Harbin of Michelin.
Several organizations sent multiple representatives
to hear the learning sessions and see the products
in the exhibit hall, including Bunge North America,
Holcim, CITGO, DuPont, MillerCoors, Honda North
America and Nissan.
The event came to a close with a drawing for
the show-prize giveaway, which this year was a
new Harley-Davidson motorcycle. All registered
attendees who visited each of the sponsoring
exhibitors' booths were eligible to win, but it was
Michelin powerhouse operator Jon Fox who
was the winner.
"That wasn't my name was it?" Fox asked when
his name was drawn. "It feels amazing (to be the
winner). Honestly, it is still not processing yet. I am
extremely surprised and extremely happy. I've been
contemplating buying a motorcycle
for years, and I guess now I don't have to
contemplate it anymore. I'm going to
be a rider."
Excitement is already building for next
year's Reliable Plant Conference and
Exhibition, scheduled for April 5-7, 2016,
in Louisville, Kentucky. For registration,
