Ridgid, a part of Emerson’s professional tools portfolio, announced the return of Ridgid Experience, Sept. 22-24, at Ridgid headquarters in Elyria, Ohio.

Four prize winners, including apprentices and professionals, will be selected the week of July 12 from last year’s U.S. entrants after the 2020 trip was canceled due to the pandemic and from those who enter this year by July 2.

“We’re excited to have Ridgid Experience make a comeback. For years, we’ve boosted our outreach programs to help attract the next generation of professionals to the skilled trades. This year’s contest reflects our commitment to celebrating people in the industry at all stages of their career,” said Becky Brotherton, Senior Marketing Communications Manager, Ridgid for Emerson. “The trip is always a highlight of the year for our team and a trip that past winners have called the trade trip of a lifetime. It’s become a truly career-defining experience for winners and we can’t wait to host this year’s group.”

Past contest winner, Bobby Scirica, a plumbing – service technician from Arizona described the trip this way: “I’ve been using these tools for years and being here and seeing the machines and people who make the tools, it’s emotional.”

And another past winner, Rob Broccolo, owner of Professional Drain Services of Southern New England, said, “Ridgid is a big name in the industry and it felt incredible to be selected for a once in a lifetime opportunity. By far the highlight of my career and time in the trades.”
