A three-day, promotion-focused trip to Kentucky resulted in 54 engineers, architects, and contractors hearing about asphalt parking lots with concrete overlays, reports Jon Hansen, NRMCA senior vice president, local paving. The meetings were hosted by the Kentucky Ready Mixed Concrete Association staff members John McCord, Greg Smith and Brett Baker with NRMCA Producer member Irving Materials, Inc. (IMI) of Evansville, IN.

"This was a great opportunity to take the message to the people and have time to interact, answer questions and build relationships within the concrete construction industry," Hansen said.
