Convention 2009

Posted by francine on Aug 18, 2009 in Company News |

This year’s company convention was a huge success! The Total Basement Finishing dealers had their convention on Wednesday and Thursday, dividing their time between the Marriott in Hartford and the Total Basement Finishing headquarters in Seymour, Connecticut.

Dealer sat through informational classes and seminars to learn new techniques and hear about new products in the Total Basement Finishing line, including new ceiling tiles and floor tiles.

There was also a dinner cruise along the Connecticut River and an awards ceremony at the Bushnell Theater in Hartford featuring this year’s guest speaker, Nick Vujicic.

A great time was had by all!
