Paving equipment dealers from around the state presented their wares at the annual meeting of the Texas Asphalt Pavement Association, which took place from September 18-21 at the La Cantera Resort and Spa in San Antonio.

The popular event drew a record 788 registrants, according to Emily Adams, TXAPA director of marketing.

Equipment dealers are among the biggest supporters of the organization, whose stated mission is to serve the needs of asphalt producers, contractors, liquid asphalt suppliers and interested firms dedicated to improving and growing the asphalt industry in Texas.

The event featured technical sessions, prominent industry leaders and other award winning speakers, plenty of networking, a golf tournament and casino night.

Live and silent auctions benefited the TXAPA Scholarship program.

Next year, the event will return to La Cantera from September 9-12, 2024.
