Message from the Executive Director           

This week's Weekly is a reflection on the 2016 Spring Maintenance Forum that took place this past week in Bremerton Washington.   We broke three big records with this year’s event:
      60 Registered Attendees
      47 Registered Vendors
      11 Company Sponsors
Moving forward into 2017, WSTA will be looking at locations around the state that can handle the Forum size and needs as we continue to see growth with this extremely popular event.
 
Finally, I want to give a big thanks to the Kitsap Transit team for assisting in providing transit services and logistics as well as a thank you to the WSTA Team for all their hard work this past week and months pulling this together. 

 
Justin D. Leighton
