What an incredible experience Vista GeoScience had at the SAME Omaha Industry Days event at the CHI Health Center Arena and Convention Center last week! Engaging with the community at the intersection of environmental science and military engineering was truly inspiring. We were thrilled to connect with so many passionate professionals dedicated to advancing our industry's impact on both environmental sustainability and military operations. A big highlight of our time was hosting the Fossil/Mineral Raffle! Congratulations to John Esada from Silver Mountain a NorthWind company for winning the amazing trilobite, and to Madeleine Kaiser from HDR (picture being sent :)) for taking home the stunning pyrite. Your enthusiasm and support mean the world to us! Special thank you to Evelyn and Violet for their help with the picking the names out of the raffle bowl. It's heartwarming to see young minds eager to contribute to our environment's future. This week, you will find us at the Colorado Convention Center for the Battelle Chlorinated Conference.
