Thanks for the Expo

gotta go

Its been crazy since the Expo, too.

I want to say a great big THANK YOU for all the support given to the Great Lakes Convoy. For our first fund raising effort we did really well.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the barbeque. The grillers did a great job getting everyone fed. Next year if we have more attendees bringing a dish to pass we can use a lift gate or 2 to set the food out. (If you cant bring a dish, bring squirt guns to share. Wouldn't that be refreshing? :p)


Thanks all :D

I walked the expo floor both days and had no problems talking to the recruiters even after I told them I was in a van. The gentleman from Express 1 told me they had a freeze on vans right now but still talked with me, gave me his card and asked that I call in a couple of weeks since they are going month by month for the freeze.

I talked with nations express just passing the time. He told me they fired a C/Van fleet operator with 30 Sprinters and they are hiring any type van. So that's a good lead for you guys'

When I ask if they take extended cargo vans all the recruiters was nice to me except a young guy from Load one. He said the cargo vans days are over.He must be some guru of expediting... He think that Load 1 invented the expediting business. So I told him to go and buy a 50k Sprinter and start expediting ....But this guy was the only negative point on the expo. Thank you for all who made this happened /

All in all, it was a great Expo. I wish we could have stayed for the BBQ, but work is work, maybe next year.
