EXPO Social & Foundation Auction Rodeo! 
Music, Games, Cornhole and Much More!
The National Frame Building Association 
welcomed attendees to an unforgettable evening 
at the NFBA Expo Social & Foundation Auction 
in Oklahoma City — an event many are already 
calling one for the history books.
With a lively rodeo theme setting the tone for the 
evening, attendees enjoyed authentic Oklahoma 
City barbecue, live entertainment, interactive 
games, and plenty of opportunities to connect 
with industry peers. The atmosphere reflected 
the strong sense of community that continues 
to define the NFBA.
