World of Concrete 2010 is HERE!!!

The 2010 World of Concrete Trade Show is finally here!  While some of our team members arrived over the weekend, almost everyone arrived bright and early this morning.  As soon as we checked into our hotel rooms and bought a little something for breakfast, it was time to get to work laying carpet and setting up the booth for both teams.

This year marks a new beginning for both the Ashford Formula and RetroPlate teams at WOC '10.  Instead of being miles apart from each other in the Las Vegas Convention Center, we are now back-to back, and will be from now on.  No more having to explain where the other team's booth is from now on.  Now all we have to do is point and say, "they're right behind us!"

Below are a few pictures of our hardworking team putting our booths together.

So what's new and exciting with Ashford Formula in 2010?  Well, after years of talking and planning, and many, many hours of meetings, designing and data input, the long awaited and revamped AshfordFormula.com is finally making its debut.  While we have not yet formally launched the website and gone live, we are giving everyone who stops by our booth a preview of what to expect in the coming week.  It is a very exciting time for the Ashford Formula team!  Let me share with you the new things you'll see on our new and improved website:
