🎃 Safety, networking, and a little Halloween fun! 👻
___
The IEA team had a great time at the Minnesota Safety Council's 2026 Southern Regional Safety Day in Mankato on October 27!

We enjoyed attending informative safety sessions, connecting with industry professionals, and catching up with plenty of familiar faces.

And since Halloween was right around the corner, there was no shortage of creativity! 🦺 Amy and Renee the Safety Cone got into the spirit, and even Clint Eastwood (well, his life-size cutout!) made a surprise appearance at the exhibitor booths. 🤠

It was a fun day filled with great conversations, new connections, and a shared commitment to workplace safety.

👏 Thanks to the Minnesota Safety Council and everyone who stopped by the IEA booth!
