Association is revving up for a strong 2008 with educational sessions and networking
opportunities at its 2008 Spring Seminar. The event will be held in Winston-Salem

\"This event truly combines business with pleasure. What could be better than
learning news skills, staying on top of industry trends, all while enjoying what the
local area has to offer?\" asked John Finnessy, CMP, Executive Director of the NPSA,
a nonprofit membership association dedicated to the advancement of the portable
storage industry. \"Our goal is always to provide pertinent educational programs and
facilitate the exchange of ideas between members, sponsors, exhibitors and guests.
But we can also have some fun in the process.\"

relationship with your town, city and municipality from the president of the Better

executive, and much more.

local NPSA member. If you want additional training on locking devices, trailers and
other aspects of yard operations, you won\'t want to miss these demonstrations.
Trailer manufacturers such as Contral and Landoll will have product available for
hands-on inspection. Recreational activities include a visit to the Childress
Vineyards, nestled at the gateway of the Yadkin Valley operated by NASCAR team owner
