APAI SUMMER MEETING
“Some Like it HOT”
The APAI Summer Meeting took place at the Bridges Bay Resort in Okoboji with over fifty people attending the 2017 “Some Like it HOT” event. This meeting featured luncheon presentations by Wade Weiss, Greene Co. Engineer and President of the Iowa County Engineers Association, and Dr. Scott Schram, Iowa DOT District 4 Engineer. The group enjoyed a sunset cruise around West Okoboji Lake and a beautiful outdoor patio dinner at the Waterfront restaurant. The next day featured six teams competing for the “Championship of the World” at the Summer Meeting golf outing. The beautiful trophies were won by Chris Jessen (Heartland Asphalt), Randy Holladay (Flint Hills Resources), Ken Geoghegan (Murphy Tractor & Equipment), and Royce Fichtner (APAI). The summer meeting welcomed new attendees as part of the Asphalt Comprehensive Training (ACT) Program to introduce the APAI’s new leaders to all aspects of the industry. “The APAI Summer Meeting was developed as an opportunity to keep the fellowship of Iowa’s Asphalt industry alive and well. This willingness of Iowa’s contractors to compete for work, but respect your fellow industry professionals is too important to let diminish over time,” said Bill Rosener, APAI Executive Vice President.
