Their day involved several workshops which included presentations from Autogem and Alcoa. The company which celebrated its 50th anniversary back in 2015 used the fabulous conference facilities at the Clontarf Castle  to set out their plans for 2017.

The highlight of the event is the presentation of the Modern Cup to the best performing depot which was presented to Tommy Duggan from their branch in Galway who had a fantastic year. Runners up were the team from Bachelors Walk in Lisburn and in third place were the lads from Carrigtwohill. Following the presentation of the cup everyone enjoyed the entertainment from The Hit Machine drummers.
