62nd Annual Conference Under Way

The 62nd annual conference is off with a bang.  The first day started off with an somber service of the events of 9/11 and remember those who lost their lives on that horrific day.  The seminar continued with remarks from Vice President Brian Batten, State Fire Marshal Farr, and Public Education Committee Chair Ted Jensen.

The keynote address provided solid motivation from Ray Renoylds, State Fire Marshal from Iowa, followed by updates to NFPA 13D/R by Dana Haagensen, then completed with an expert panel which took Q/A from those in attendance.  The day was caped off with a get acquainted reception with local legislators from the capital.

There is still room for you to join us on Wed, Thursday or Friday.  Please stop by and you can register for the day!
