RETA_Program_2024 FINAL

115th National RETA Conference I’d like to welcome each of you to the 115th National RETA Conference! The week of October 21st is filled with great opportunities and an exciting conference program. We have an exceptional combination of technical papers, hands-on workshops, manufacturer-specific workshops, and hot point sessions. As always, we are kicking off the Conference with review courses for CARO, CIRO, CRST, and CRES along with a Train the Trainer course. Certification testing is available during the week so if you haven’t signed up to take your exam, please contact Samantha at samantha@reta.com and schedule yours today. We can’t wait to celebrate those who earn a new certification at Conference. The Conference is a time for members to get together and reconnect with old friends and make new friends along the way. Our intention is to connect and educate great minds from across all levels in the refrigeration industry. We created a Conference for all of those in the profession — a Letter from the RETA Exectutive Director

Conference that would be more than an event — an experience intended to carry beyond 2024…something like a family reunion. While you are here, please take advantage of attending as many sessions as you can and earn the maximum PDHs available for the week. Refer to the Conference program for all educational sessions, events, and exhibition hours. This information is also available on the Conference App which allows you to have all the same information at your fingertips. RETA’s goal at our National Conference is education but we can’t meet that goal without adding in the 3 f’s…fun, fellowship, family. Join us Monday October 21st for an afternoon of networking at Top Golf and an evening out at the Circle R Ranch which will be a hootin’ and hollering good ol’ time. On Wednesday October 23rd we have our “sip and dip” mix and mingle followed by our Awards Night featuring Grant Price, a magician and mentalist. If you haven’t
