Wood Industry Conference (WIC)

2016 Woodworking Industry Conference a Success

This year's Wood Industry Conference (WIC), which took place in Cancun, Mexico, was a great success! Strong attendance and content, volunteer involvement and new meeting App capabilities made this a program to be rivaled.

The meeting brought together members from key industry organizations with co-sponsors WMMA and WMIA and participation from AWFS and NBMDA. There were a total of 222 attendees represented from the participating organizations. Each organization held leadership and volunteer meetings as well as hosted sessions and other gathering.

Attendees were provided with networking opportunities including a dinner on the beach with beach volleyball. WIC's schedule allowed for the presentation of awards, change of volunteer leadership and more.
