Honoring Excellence: The MFASC Fall Outing 2024 at the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort!
The Metal Finishing Association of California (MFASC) held its annual Fall Outing from October 4 to 6, 2024, in the picturesque setting of Carlsbad. This year’s outing attracted over fifty attendees, including guests from the East Coast and Midwest, all eager to connect and share insights in the metal finishing industry.
The event featured two fabulous private dinners, providing attendees with the opportunity to network and enjoy exceptional culinary experiences. These gatherings fostered camaraderie and collaboration among industry professionals, creating an environment where ideas could flourish.
One of the most poignant moments of the outing came during the annual meeting when long-time board member and dedicated industry advocate Jerry Wahlin was presented with the MFASC Lifetime Achievement Award. This recognition not only highlighted Jerry’s significant contributions to the association but also served as an emotional reminder of the dedication and passion that individuals bring to the metal finishing community. Attendees expressed their appreciation for Jerry’s unwavering commitment to the industry and the positive impact he has made throughout his career.
The success of the Fall Outing would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors: Sheffield Platters, K&L Anodizing, and MFASC. Their commitment to the association and its members plays a crucial role in enabling events like this to thrive.
As we reflect on this year’s Fall Outing, we look forward to another great gathering next year, filled with more opportunities for learning, networking, and celebrating the achievements of our community. Thank you to everyone who joined us in Carlsbad, and we can’t wait to see you again soon!
