Considering that this year's NWFA Expo will be held in Nashville, Tenn.-also known as "Music City"-it's no surprise that some of the biggest prizes to be awarded every hour during the trade show have something to do with music:
• Three pairs of Dr. Dre Beats high-definition headphones, provided by Welcome Reception sponsors Bona (Booth #617), MAPEI (Booth #507), and Somerset Hardwood Flooring (Booth #703).
• Three Bose stereo systems, provided by Opening General Session sponsors Mullican Flooring (Booth #1015), Somerset Hardwood Flooring (Booth #703) and Wagner Meters (Booth #600).
• Three guitars autographed by CMA Female Vocalist of the Year and Expo entertainer Pam Tillis, provided by Awards Dinner & Closing Concert sponsors Middle Tennessee Lumber (Booth #1225), Norton Abrasives/Saint-Gobain (Booth #603) and WD Flooring (Booth #835).
Attendees who donate to the NWFA Industry Research Foundation (which conducts scientific research, testing and education benefiting the hardwood flooring industry) will be entered to win a VIP package to the 2014 Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas in April, valued at nearly $10,000. The package includes two VIP tickets to the awards show and post-event party, airfare for two, a two-night hotel stay and round-trip airport transportation. Attendees can donate to the foundation online, upon registering for the expo or at the NWFA booth during trade show hours. Entries are $25 for one chance to win, $50 for three chances, $75 for four chances and $100 for five chances. All attendees who enter the drawing will receive a set of NWFA earbuds.
