URPA Conference 2014

Utah Recreation & Parks Association Members Set to Embrace the Madness 

March 4, 2014 —Landscape Structures Inc., a Delano, Minn.-based commercial playground equipment manufacturer, along with its Utah playground consultant, Sonntag Recreation, will exhibit at the 2014 Utah Recreation & Parks Association 53rd Annual Conference, taking place from March 9 to 12 in St. George. The conference will feature Matt Jones, a world-class professional speaker and author, as the keynote speaker. This learning experience was made possible through the 2013-2014 State Association Speaker Scholarship program from Landscape Structures.

Jones uses running a marathon as a metaphor that provides winning strategies for personal and professional success. By sharing his against-all-odds story of conquering cancer three times, relearning how to walk, and completing a marathon, he will inspire, encourage, and motivate people in attendance. Audience members can take the strategies and lessons Jones shares and apply them to their life in order to overcome challenges and achieve greater success. Jones will keep attendees engaged with his high-energy, upbeat, and humorous delivery.

Currently the author of five books, Jones used his story to pen the following:

• Going through Hell? Don't Stop! How to Survive Your Darkest Days and Create Your Brightest Future
• 101 Timeless Truths: Proverbs from Around the World
• Life's a Marathon: 26.2 Winning Strategies for Personal and Professional Success
