Inaugural Northeast Propane Show a Resounding Success.
|
| If
your first impression upon arrival at the Holiday Inn
parking lot in Boxborough, MA was “Wow!” then you were
not alone! The huge tent that greeted participants at the
inaugural Northeast Propane Show (NPS) was impossible to
miss. The indoor exhibit hall had been “sold out” for
months and the outdoor exhibit space was near capacity as
the show began on Tuesday morning, with fifteen trucks,
three transport trailers, twenty booths under the Big Top,
and ninety indoor exhibits!
NPS was the first event of
its kind in the northeast in nearly a decade, and was
presented by the Propane Gas Association of New England (PGANE)
with assistance from New England Fuel Institute (NEFI).

| Final
attendance numbers were not available as we went to press,
but with pre-registrations hovering around 1,200 before the
show, and estimating a few hundred on-site registrants, it
would appear that approximately 1,500 participated in the
show. The trade show aisles and outside tent area were
crowded, seminars and tech sessions were well attended, and
the intense heat and humidity failed to keep people away
from Tuesday evening’s successful reception and outdoor
barbecue.
On Wednesday, the event
continued with a full luncheon hall, where awards were
presented to propane industry employees who were outstanding
in their field (selected by nomination from PGANE member
companies.) For a complete list of exhibiting companies and
