RIDGID is again giving trade professionals a contest to win a trip to company headquarters, as well as other perks.
The company recently announced that it has started accepting entries for the RIDGID Experience, being held Aug. 3-5 at RIDGID world headquarters in Elyria, Ohio. Five grand prize winners will be selected.
Entries will be accepted through April 29. Contest winners will be selected based on their response to questions, trade involvement, enthusiasm for RIDGID tools displayed in submitted picture or video, and originality and uniqueness of entry.
“It is so important to us as a brand to recognize the hard work, commitment and dedication that trade professionals put into their jobs every day. The RIDGID Experience contest gives us the opportunity to reward a select group of individuals with a truly unique event, and it puts a spotlight on the work they do,” says Becky Brotherton, RIDGID’s director of engagement marketing. “This year marks the fifth RIDGID Experience contest and the excitement it generates is a direct result of the people who join us: Their enthusiasm for what they do is evident. Our goal always is to highlight the importance of the skilled trades, and every year we’re thrilled to see that pride within our winners.”
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.”
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.”

• An all-expenses-paid trip to RIDGID world headquarters
• A VIP RIDGID headquarters tour
