138 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S

138 THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK NCFA - 7737 Ellington Place • Mentor, Ohio 44060 • Phone 440-975-9503 • Fax 440-350-1676 • web: www.ncfaonline.com NORTH COAST FASTENER ASSOCIATION NCFA ENJOYING A SUMMER OF EVENTS by Marty Nolan, NCFA President On June 19, 2014, the NCFA held its annual Night at the Races at the newly updated Hard Rock Casino. The Casino is connected to the race track which enabled NCFA members the opportunity to walk over to the casino to try and recover the money they lost betting on horses. We have held our event here in the past, but the addition of the Hard Rock casino has absolutely made this a more entertaining event. Earlier this year, the NCFA invited Bob DiBiasio, a member of the Cleveland Indians front office, to speak at one of our dinner meetings. On July 10th, it was time to take our meeting to Progressive Field and watch the Cleveland Indians battle it out with the NY Yankees! 120 members and friends of the NCFA flooded into the Progressive Field Budweiser Porch to fill up on ballpark food and watch their beloved Indians beat the Yankees. The night was particularly memorable, as it was Derek Jeter's last visit to the Cleveland Ballpark. It was a perfect night in Cleveland for a baseball game. This was the first time the NCFA held this event, but based on attendance and responses, it will certainly be on our calendar for 2015. On September 11, 2014, the annual Screw Open golf outing will take place at Valleaire Golf Course, the location of many past Screw Opens. The course has been updated and promises to be a great location for the event. The NCFA has played a lot of good (and bad) golf here and this nostalgic location should bring up some memories of past outings. Also in September, the NCFA will be visiting America Makes, a 3D printing incubator located in Youngstown, OH. Additive Manufacturing, or 3D Printing, has certainly been an interesting topic and it is a technology that could certainly affect the fastener industry in years to come. Thanka to our friends at Hudson Fasteners for arranging this interesting event. This event takes place on September 25, 2014.
