Pacific Northwest Safety Symposium
The Safety Symposium on May 12th in Ellensburg was a huge success. Over 200 attendees enjoyed a great lineup of speakers including our morning keynote, Dan Hopwood, and our lunch keynote, Bill Sims. The event could not have happened without the support of our sponsors and exhibitors. Thanks to everyone who helped to plan this event and to those who supported or attended it. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year.
