Presidents Message
January 3 2017
I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Years with family and friends.
 It's hard to believe another year has come to a close. With the down turn in the economy, 2016 was a bit more challenging than what most rental companies have experienced over the last number of years.
During seasons when business may be slower is a great time to look at the ARA Rental U (www.ararental.org). They have many On Demand training lessons that are designed for owners, managers, and employees. It is well worth the time to grab a coffee and watch a video or two.
Thank you to everyone who attended our local meeting at Hub City Display in Saskatoon on November 1, 2016. We had twenty members attend the meeting. Thank you to Blair and Jill Holtsman for hosting.
Our guest speaker was Detective Staff Sergeant AJ Chevli from the Saskatoon Police. He gave an hour presentation on the many ways that criminals are trying to take advantage of people and business's in not only Saskatoon and Saskatchewan but all over the world. It was a very informative hour and I think everyone came away from the meeting with a lot of information.
CRA Sask Local looks forward to seeing everyone who can attend the ARA Rental Show in Orlando February 26- March 1,2017. Make sure you stop by the Networking Lounge. Brought back by popular demand, this is a great way to create new connections and enjoy some down time.
From the Sask Local I wish everyone all the best in 2017. Have a great year everyone!
