11 tree care companies were represented at TCIA’s First Regional Meeting for Commercial Companies in Chicago on January 24, 2013.

“The meeting, hosted by Kramer Tree Specialists, was a great success!” says Peggy Drescher, TCIA’s Midwest Regional Outreach Coordinator. “Tim Ayers provided great insight into the recent ANSI Z133 standard changes and Erik Peterson provided important information on how on the job injuries can affect your business. I look forward to hosting future meetings that address the needs of the tree care industry in the Midwest.”

TCIA Accredited company Kramer Tree Specialists also highlighted the event on their website – read it here. This is the first of many TCIA regional events in the works.
