In this episode, hosts Rachel Naylor, CAE, and Lisa Fall, CMP, welcome Brian Devore, professional development director for OPEN, and Doug Satre, sales manager at Gopher Sport, to discuss the value of exhibiting at TAHPERD events and supporting health and physical education professionals. They share why relationships keep them coming back year after year, explore the evolving needs of educators, and discuss current challenges, including limited budgets, professional development gaps, and the growing number of alternatively certified teachers. The conversation also offers a behind-the-scenes look at the exhibitor experience and highlights the important role industry partners play in advancing the profession.
