As I’ve said before, networking with your peers is a big benefit of attending the NAMA convention. In the trade show there’s plenty of opportunity to do that as these folks are doing.

Raising money for the Agri-Business Educational Foundation. That’s what the silent auction does. There’s lots to bid on. Stop by and support our youth.

The Ag Media Summit Booth featured a little musical entertainment. Can you say polka-time?

Plan to attend the Summit this summer.

The NAFB team is here. They’ve got the booth right across the aisle from yours truly. I snapped this during the first trade show session.

They requested no picture taking during the awards. I got this one though before Cyndi started announcing them. This is the on-stage presentation team.

The first announcement at the NAMA Awards Ceremony was the announcement of which student teams made it to the final round. They are: Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Ohio State, Purdue, Michigan State and University of Wisconsin-Madison.

There’s so many awards given out that I doubt we’ll be able to post them all and I’m not going to even try yet. But while the ceremony is going on I can bring you a few pictures.

Malcolm Media has a great display. They’re the Malcolm Racing Team. I talked to Dan Malcolm, who’s put together a great booth.

Gary & Robin Cooper, Southeast AgNet, now own Citrus Industry magazine. They’re here at NAMA to exhibit and talk about the sunshine state media combination of radio and print!
