As the lumber association’s first major event held under our new name, BLD Connection, the Nebraska Connection Conference and Top Golf event was an incredible success. This, one-day combo event brought together industry professionals for a unique blend of education, networking, and fun.

Participants delved into a High-Profit Prospecting seminar with Mark Hunter, gaining insights on building prospecting momentum for increased sales. Dena Cordova-Jack's Leadership Seminar explored the changing leadership model, emphasizing collaboration, empathy, and inclusivity in the evolving business landscape. Coach Bill Busch inspired attendees during the Membership Luncheon, sharing behind-the-scenes stories from his college football coaching career and valuable lessons on success, recruiting, and leadership.

The conference provided invaluable industry knowledge, strengthened relationships, and offered a platform for dealers, suppliers, and sponsors to connect on a deeper level. The tabletop displays fostered one-on-one interactions, allowing for in-depth discussions and product exploration.
