On behalf of our chapter, we thank everyone that attended our July 21st event at the Purina Event Center. It was outstanding! We are very grateful to Brock Fitzgerald and this entire team at Purina Farms and the Purina Event Center, Gene McCoskey and Dan Myer with Nestle' Purina, our event sponsors, Arcturis and CI Select Flooring Solutions, tour leaders from Landco Construction and Arcturis, and our roving photographer, Barry Gaston with Heitmann and Associates.
Over 150 members and friends attended this event. Some guests were held-up in their cars for a few minutes, as heavy rain began at about 4:45, ending right at 6:00 pm. Thank goodness, the sun began to shine! Guests were able to tour Purina Farms, enjoy dinner, and then entertained by the Incredible Dog Team. Oh was a show it was!
At about 7:30 pm, guests wondered up the hill to tour the new event center! What a fabulous building it is, with their grand opening scheduled for August 18th. What a treat for IFMA members - the first to visit and tour.
