Beaver Run Resort and Conference Center, Breckenridge, CO
This is the perfect time to connect with friends and business associates, hear stimulating presentations, see the latest innovations from our loyal vendors, and taste the best of Colorado’s micro-brewery industry. We also have an evening of fun with good natured competition and lots of laughs.
Located 90 minutes from Denver, it is an easy drive to this charming town in the mountains. We will be there during Octoberfest, one of the wonderful annual events in Colorado. Lots of booths, music and of course great beer!
Join the group for the Annual Golf Tournament on Friday, September 9, 2017, again on the picturesque course at Breckenridge Golf Club. Last year we sold out early, so be sure to register soon to ensure your spot. We welcome foursomes as well as individual players. We expect the same great weather, clear blue skies, and great camaraderie.
In response to our members, our keynote speaker will be Betsi Bixby, a popular presenter with a wealth of knowledge about industry concerns, business management, and leadership in family owned company structures Did you know that the petroleum industry is poised to experience major shifts - like nothing in decades? Bixby's company will share the startling research on industry trends and provide steps you can take to survive.
We welcome our vendor partners, old and new, at the Trade Show Saturday afternoon. As always our conference is made more complete by their continuing support and desire to deliver high quality services and products to our members. And don’t miss our drawings and a spin on the Colorado Lottery wheel – an ever popular part of our show.
Last, but not least, come to dinner armed with a sense of humor and a spirit of participation. Compete with your colleagues and win. It's Family Feud time - with a Twist! In our version, the audience competes and best of the best play the game on stage. It’s your opportunity to be outrageous, audacious, entertaining and, hopefully, smart!
