ConExpo-Con/Agg isn’t the only industry event taking place in Las Vegas next month.
The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) is hosting its Annual Convention at the Encore at Wynn Las Vegas, once again partnering with the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA) and the Portland Cement Association (PCA) to bring their memberships together March 10-15.
The theme of the joint convention is “building the future together,” and a variety of educational content is available for attendees along that line. A pair of keynote presentations – including one by Baltimore Orioles legend Cal Ripken Jr. – and a series of breakout sessions are planned. NSSGA’s breakouts will touch on politics, sustainability and the workforce.
Networking receptions are also scheduled for all three conventions, with special events being a community service project and an experience involving the Wynn’s canine unit. Here’s a look at the full schedule across six days next month.
