The National Roofing Contractors Association’s 116th Annual Convention and Exhibit was held Feb. 11-14, 2003, in New Orleans.
The festivities began on Tuesday, Feb. 11, with golf, tennis and sporting clays tournaments that raised money for ROOFPAC, the NRCA’s political action committee. The actual trade show began in true New Orleans style with a parade from the Hilton New Orleans Riverside, the main convention hotel, to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. NRCA President Don McCrory, president of Kiker Corp., Mobile, Ala., and his wife, Sandra, officially opened the event.
