We are ready to hit the ground running for April 2025, as many of our exhibitors will be moving into the Coliseum, which can accommodate heavy equipment.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Johnson thanked everyone involved with WVCS 2024, particularly the staff of the West Virginia Coal Association, which held its 50<sup>th<\/sup> West Virginia Coal Association Symposium in conjunction with the show.
