Alberta Pork Congress - Some new ideas at a familiar show
With the Alberta Pork Congress only 6 weeks away, plans are coming together for a valuable show.
In addition to the two day trade show the Alberta Pork Congress Board of Directors have made a few enhancements this year. First of all on Tuesday evening the annual Swine & Cheese will take place right on the trade show floor. All booths will be set up prior to 6pm and then the doors open to the public. It will be a opportunity to network with fellow industry members and producers too in a casual environment throughout out the booths. Of course there will be samples of Alberta Pork along with some refreshments.
The second new feature this year is education showcases that will take place both Wednesday and Thursday these short information sessions will give companies a opportunity to promote or educate the producers on one of their latest products and or services. If you are interested in participating call Kate or Anh at the office soon as there are only a few spots left.
And thirdly the Bruce Winkler Memoirial Silent Auction,where all funds raised will be donated to the Alberta Cancer Foundation. Donations are coming in with a wide variety of items from big to small. Stay tuned for a surprise live auction during the banquet for a few of the coveted items. If you have not already done so and wish to donate any items please let us know soonest. Also please remember to visit the silent auction area and participate. It will be open Tuesday evening and all day Wednesday.
