SCRS Open Board Meeting to Feature Two Special Presentations

One will focus on new and innovative tools that can positively impact collision repair businesses, and the other will focus on proper insurance coverage to make sure you're protected.

The Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS) is inviting everyone to its open board meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 14, from 8 to 10 a.m. at the Hilton in Palm Springs, Calif. The meeting is open to anyone wishing to learn more about the current state of the association’s activities and pressing industry topics. Attendees are not required to be a member of SCRS to participate, and pre-registration is not required.

The meeting will include updates and presentations from SCRS staff and committees outlining current and future work initiatives each group has undertaken on behalf of the membership.

The SCRS Education Committee will offer two special presentations for audience members. The first, presented by Committee Chair Kye Yeung and Toby Chess, will focus on new and innovative tools that can positively impact collision repair businesses. This will be a follow-up to the January 2014 presentation on “Cool Tools for Today’s Vehicles.”

The second presentation will be led by Gerry Cecil, vice president of sales and marketing for Arrowhead Specialty Markets, Arrowhead General Insurance Agency. Cecil will emphasize that the new year is a great time to take stock of existing contracts and business insurance coverage and considerations, making sure that your assets are properly protected. He will provide a brief overview of pertinent considerations for management of risk and the annual task of insurance renewals.
