Western Pennsylvania sits at the heart of one of the country’s most important energy-producing regions, with a deep concentration of pipeline construction, natural gas development, skilled trades, contractors, unions, and suppliers throughout the Appalachian Basin.
The Rally creates a place for the blue-collar and business sides of the industry to reconnect outside the jobsite – without corporate trade-show atmosphere.
The Appalachian Basin has one of the strongest pipeline communities in the country, and that is exactly why we wanted to bring the Tour here.
–Melanie Baxter
This isn’t about putting another trade show on the calendar. It’s about getting the crews. contractors, suppliers, unions, and industry leaders together in one place and giving this industry a rally that actually feels like it belongs to them.
