The Fairfield County and Southwestern Connecticut Chapters of the
International Maintenance Institute extend an open invitation to:

DOES THE ECONOMY HAVE YOU STRESSED?
FIND NEW SOLUTIONS AT:

THE BIGGEST LITTLE SHOW IN THE EAST!

WHERE FACILITIES MANAGERS AND
MAINTENANCE PROFESSIONALS GO TO SHOP…

Rated Best By Our Exhibitors for the Past 5 Years...and Counting!

Does the economy have you stressed? Are you cutting back, because of uncertainty in the marketplace? How can you gain control of your expenses? Where do you start? The Fairfield County and Southwestern Connecticut Chapters of the International Maintenance Institute suggest you look no further than THE PATRICK J. FORTIER, IMI MAINTENANCE EXPO AND OUTING.

This unique, dual event will be held on Wednesday, June 18th, at beautiful Holiday Hill in Prospect - Cheshire, Connecticut. The Committee for the 2008 event said, “Exhibitors will meet people with the potential to increase their business, and the attendee will find solutions to help improve their operations. Here you will find new ways to save on energy, maximize the use of your equipment, increase maintenance efficiency, and more. Most importantly, everyone will benefit!”

The two sponsoring Chapters are proud of the fact that, for the last five years, their exhibitors have rated the Expo the best facilities related trade show in which they have participated. They are also very proud of their excellent exhibitor renewal rate, “We believe the success of the Expo is based on its great value. We get more attendees per hour, or per dollar invested by our exhibitors.” It is truly, THE BIGGEST LITTLE SHOW IN THE EAST.”

“The Outing is a great value, as well,” as reported by the Committee. “It gives the Expo a relaxing and festive atmosphere, and it expands networking opportunities. Attendees and vendors can enjoy the beautiful grounds, participate in the many indoor and outdoor activities, take a lunch break, grab a snack, have a wonderful dinner, and visit the open bar.” See, “The OUTING”, below for details.

The Outing has been growing for over 35 years. And now, combined with the Expo, the event has been drawing up to 750 attendees. The setting provides an ideal atmosphere for Vendors/Exhibitors and Attendees to interact with Maintenance Supervisors, Plant Engineers, Facility Managers, Purchasing Agents, and some of the area’s most talented and qualified facilities professionals.”

The EXPO: 1:00 PM - 6:00 PM

With over sixty exhibits you will find everything from A to Z (aerial lifts to zero downtime products). The maintenance solutions: equipment, supplies, services, technologies, and the experts to help you solve your facilities and maintenance problems are all under the roof of "Connecticut's Premier Maintenance Show"....The 2008 IMI MAINTENANCE EXPO.

The EXPO is produced by maintenance professionals for all those who have an interest in the maintenance function - people in profit and non-profit organizations, in institutional, commercial and manufacturing settings - plant engineers, plant managers, maintenance supervisors, purchasing people, and anyone looking for ways to increase the efficiency of their facility.
