Demolition Rockies Event in Colorado
Published: 19/3, 2019
The National Demolition Association's their annual convention and trade show, Demolition Rockies, takes place March 22-25 at the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center in Aurora, Colo. Demolition Rockies features a packed agenda with a number of interesting lectures; the NDA Expo, the biggest ever; and two dates of life demonstrations. A memorable highlight of Demolition Rockies is sure to be keynote speaker Charlie Morecraft, who worked for 15 years for Exxon Corporation. Having been critically injured in an explosion that burned nearly half of his body, Morecraft conveys, in the most penetrating way, the lesson he so painfully learned. Seldom, are people confronted by the real consequences of an abuse in safety practices. Those who listen to Morecraft's talk will be deeply moved and motivated to never again take safety for granted. As NDA notes, Charlie's story is a wake-up call that shakes you out of complacency and taking responsibilities for granted. Leave this presentation inspired to handle all aspects of your life with greater awareness and appreciation of safety, whether on the job, at home, or at play. Other Demolition Rockies events include a plant decommissioning demonstration; NDA's annual membership meeting; Fast and Furious presentations; and a panel discussion called ÒManaging Demolition Project which contains perspectives from demolition company owners. The day wraps up with the Colorado Craft Beer reception and the "Colorado Carnival" convention party. www.demolitionassociation.com
