EAMA Conference
Collins & Jewell owners Chris Jewell and Brian Dudek, along with C&J Management Gary Smith, Ralph Watson and Charles Biederka, attended the 1st Annual EAMA Conference on August 9th. The evening consisted of networking with other manufacturers and an informative and inspirational talk from guest speaker Simon T. Bailey. The C&J representatives in attendance got a lot out of the event and left feeling enthused with an abundance of new ideas! What a great evening put on by EAMA and sponsored by Eastern Savings Bank!
