Elections were held at the 1985 convention Nov. ll-13 at the Executive Inn West in l-ouisville.

Members were unusually enthusiastic about the prograrns pres€nted during the convention. Speakers included Dr. Michael Skinner and Neil C-anto of the Geneva Corp. who discussed the valuing of a retail lumber and building material business. Table top displays drew more than 20 exhibitors and attractd good attendance, according to Thompson.

A successful fust for the convention was the changing of the traditional formal president's dinner and dance into a Hawaiian luau conducted poolside at the hotel. The response from the membership was an ernphatic endorsement of the change, Thompson said.

Among the first activities planned by the new officers and board is a series of three treated wood seininan to be sponsored by the association in Paducah, Louisville and Covington April l, 2 and 3.
