On September 16-18, 2015, DOT Metals was pleased to be one of the many exhibitors on hand for the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) 40th Annual Conference & Trade Show in Fort Worth, Texas. The conference was held at the Fort Worth Convention Center and Omni Fort Worth Hotel downtown, and featured three full days of education combined with a healthy dose of food, fun and entertainment.

Seminars and educational programs took place Thursday morning, with the trade show officially open in the afternoon. The day ended with the RCAT Annual Business Meeting/Awards Banquet on Thursday evening, followed by live entertainment and socializing.
