SCRS to hold meeting at SEMA

The Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS) will hold its open meeting from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Oct. 30 at the SEMA Show Collision Repair and Refinish Stage, located in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.

The meeting will provide attendees with an after hour’s vantage point of the show floor as well as insight into the association's 2012 activities.

The meeting will include updates from the SCRS chairman and executive director, outlining current and future work initiatives the association has undertaken on behalf of its membership.

Attendees can expect specialty presentations from committee members and guests, including a detailed presentation from the SCRS Education Committee, led by committee member Toby Chess, detailing critical safety information about the importance of correct windshield bonding procedures, the materials available to the marketplace, and the equipment and training necessary to address the structural nature of today’s glass installations.

In addition to SCRS committee reports, Toyota Motor Sales Collision Business Development Consultant Rick Leos will present advancements the manufacturer is making to provide comprehensive estimate data to aid in the preparation of repair blueprints that reflect the OEM recommended procedures.

This meeting is open to any member of the industry and there is no registration fee.
