                                                                Class: 8:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

The curriculum on grouting has been drawn from a DACUM (design a curriculum) for those engaged in well construction and vertical closed loop installations. The hands-on component will specifically address those competencies necessary to construct the vertical closed loop and protect the aquifer.           

 

All who register and attend the entire session will receive a certificate of attendance.  Those who wish to receive a certificate in grouting competencies must attend the entire class, and then pass a 20-question quiz with an 80% or better score.  (Quizzes will be scored and the results mailed to participants following the class.)

 

The certificate in grouting competencies is different from the new NGWA Certified Vertical Closed Loop Driller exam which will be introduced in July.

 

Attendees will spend most of the class outdoors and should dress accordingly.  Lunch will be included.

 

Fees and registration:                    On or before April 1:

                                                                                Members - $95

Re:  Indiana Ground Water Association’s 2009 Bi-Annual Convention

Dear Indiana Ground Water Association Suppliers:

 

The Indiana Ground Water Association holds their convention every other year.  This year our convention will be held at the Sheraton Indianapolis Hotel & Suites on Monday and Tuesday, November 9-10, 2009.  Due to a conflict with the Ohio show, we have moved our dates to accommodate our exhibiting companies.  We hope this change will make it more convenient and economical as you plan your travel schedule throughout the Midwest.

 

We have moved our convention to Indianapolis to accommodate our members throughout the state.   Please be sure to invite your customers from Indiana and our bordering states who might not attend their own state shows due to date conflicts or distance.

 

We are in the process of finalizing our educational programming and invite our exhibitors to submit a seminar topic and speaker.  All topics will be evaluated by our convention committee and decisions will be based solely on educational/training content.

 

The hotel is very nice and located at Keystone at the Crossing which has many nice restaurants and great shopping.  We have contracted for a small block of rooms with the hotel.  Please book your reservations as soon as possible.  If we do not pick up our contracted block, the IGWA could face expensive penalties.

 

Please review the enclosed:  Exhibitor Contract, Advertising Contract, Sponsorship Contract, Scholarship Silent Auction and Door Prize donation forms.  If you cannot exhibit, consider participating through advertising or sponsorship, donating an item for the silent auction or a door prize.    There are many opportunities!

 

We thank you for your support throughout the years.  Now, more than ever, is the time to get in front of your customers.  Don’t miss this great opportunity!  Thank you.

 

Sincerely,

 

Convention Co-Chairs,

Joe Armstrong, Armstrong Drilling

Dan McCreadie, Kokomo Pump Supply
