-Josh Garver, Fleet Service Manager, Unified School District 470, Arkansas City, KS

-Andrew Grasty, Assistant Transportation Director, Centerville City Schools, Centerville, OH
“This is a very worthwhile event. I enjoyed everything. It is great to meet others and share ideas. Thank you SBF for hosting this event.”

“Excellent networking opportunity. I was able to meet and discuss with the right people and the decision-makers. Extremely valuable.”
-Saul Horowitz, President, Routee, Spring Valley, NY
“It was nice to get the one-on-one time with operators. We all have time-sensitive schedules, so getting the time to sit down and get to know each other on a personal and business level is something that is sometimes missing."
-Quentin Kuhns, Sales Manager, Auto-Jet Muffler Corp., Des Moines, IA
“As a first-time supplier host, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was happy to see that the operators really did want to learn about my products—that makes the event worth it.”
-Jeff Dahlin, CMO, Bullet Proof Diesel, Mesa, AZ
“School Bus Fleet ConneX put me in contact with vendors that I might not normally look into. I found cost savings in some new products that will allow for a better spec’d bus!”
-Cody Cox, Director of Transportation & Fleet Services, Bellville ISD, Bellville, TX
“This event exceeded my expectations. It is well-organized and thought out. I gained more knowledge from the vendors than at prior conferences I’ve attended.”
-Margaret Hogan, Transportation Supervisor, Mendham Township Board of Education, Brookside, NJ
"I have been attending conferences for 30+ years, and I can say that the format and presentation of this conference was, without a doubt, the absolute best and most worth-while conference I have ever attended."
-Rick Baker, Director of Maintenance & Transportation, Center Independent School District, Center, TX
“If you are given the opportunity to attend, DO IT! SBFX was a great opportunity to network with peers in a small setting and discuss common issues. Couple this with one-on-one discussions with suppliers, SBFX was fantastic! I highly recommend it."
