t was another successful event at USIndoor's 18th
Annual Facility Operator's Conference and Tradeshow
in Indianapolis! Held at the Crowne Plaza Indianapolis
Downtown Union Station, May 15-18, the Conference
attracted facility operators, startups, and exhibitors.
The Crowne Plaza provided a unique backdrop,
converted into a hotel from the world's first union train
station. Hotel rooms were built where trains used to
run, and some guests enjoyed lodgings in converted
railroad cars still sitting on tracks where they would
have been 100 years ago. An occasional rumble
reverberated as trains traveled through the city on
still-active lines behind the hotel.
And trains weren't the only transportation on display,
as the city prepared for the Indy 500 one week later
with race cars adorning the airport and throughout
downtown, including our hotel lobby.
Being an even year, our bi-annual Certified Arena
Operator course, led by Jim Cline, kicked off the
educational program. More than two dozen people
spent two full days learning from industry experts on
topics ranging from business strategy and marketing
to human resources and risk management. They will
The Bus Tour is always a must and highly
educational. All in all was great to attend –
recommend highly going to it.
