          It hasn’t been here in about seven years but this
        
        
          year we welcome the International Pool | Spa | Patio
        
        
          Expo back to Orlando.  Since most of our members
        
        
          don’t make the trek to this show when it is in Vegas,
        
        
          many of you may be planning to head to Orlando and
        
        
          see what they have to offer.
        
        
          This trade show caters to the pool industry on a
        
        
          completely different scale then our annual February
        
        
          Florida show. It is a good opportunity to see things our
        
        
          February event doesn’t focus on, including The Hot
        
        
          Spot which features outdoor kitchens, grills and fire pits; a designer landscape
        
        
          pavilion provided by APLD and even special education sessions from the
        
        
          website Houzz.
        
        
          FSPAwill be at the show to welcome our members and Florida professionals.
        
        
          Those who apply for membership at the show are eligible to get a $100 gift

          But, don’t forget that the February show is just around the corner too!  There
