 "Our staff have been in the event business for 15 years or so now, but only recently (the last 3 years) have we been getting involved with the NASC.  We’ve had involvements/partnerships with many of its members before, but through our membership with the NASC and by attending its conferences we’ve been able to expand our network and our ability to create new partnerships nationally with our various event businesses. We very much enjoy and appreciate this membership with the NASC, and look forward to continuing the relationship moving forward."

 "NASC, through its Marketplace, has been directly responsible for us obtaining hosts for three of our Can-Am Police-Fire Games. We attend other conferences, however, the NASC Marketplace has been the most productive for us.  The 2010 Marketplace in Columbus, Ohio generated at least five cities that may bid on our Games in 2016.  We will continue to be active members even when we do not have Games up for bid."
