March 20, 2023

ELYRIA, Ohio — RIDGID®, a part of Emerson’s professional tools portfolio, recently announced they are now accepting entries for their sixth annual RIDGID Experience contest — a VIP event that has become a sought-after ticket for tradespeople across North America. This year’s RIDGID Experience, to be held on June 7-9 in Elyria, Ohio, will once again celebrate and reward the trades, putting a spotlight on winners’ hard work and achievements. Six grand prize winners will receive an all-expenses-paid trip as well as memorable experiences, including a factory tour, customization of an iconic RIDGID pipe wrench, and a night out to see the Cleveland Guardians baseball game.

The goal of the event has always been to recognize and reward tradespeople with a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Past winners recently talked about what they loved about their RIDGID Experience and why others should enter to win a spot on this year’s trip.

“You definitely need to enter to win a chance to go to the RIDGID Experience,” said Alan Carlson, commenting on the RIDGID Experience 2022. “It’s a trip of a lifetime — behind-the-scenes info, lots of fun, you’re treated like a rockstar. I guarantee you it’s worth it.”

“We love that past winners speak so highly of their RIDGID Experience,” said Becky Brotherton, director of engagement marketing, RIDGID for Emerson. “It’s their energy and excitement for others to win their own trip that has kept the momentum going. We can’t wait to meet our sixth group of winners this summer and treat them to the VIP experience past winners have loved.”

Entries will be accepted through March 24. Contest winners will be selected based on their response to questions, trade involvement, enthusiasm for RIDGID tools as displayed in submitted picture or video of them with their favorite RIDGID tool, and originality and uniqueness of entry. How to enter and full 2023 RIDGID Experience official contest rules can be found by clicking here.

RIDGID Experience contest winners will receive:

  • An all-expenses-paid trip to RIDGID world headquarters;
  • A VIP RIDGID headquarters tour;
  • A custom RIDGID pipe wrench;
  • Professional photoshoot, celebrating winners’ dedication to the skilled trades;
  • Suite seats to see the Cleveland Guardians;
  • A trip to Topgolf, a sports entertainment complex that features an inclusive, high-tech golf game;
  • And more.

 

Winners will also have the opportunity to shape the future of professional tool development by providing their expert insights with RIDGID leadership including engineering, marketing, research, and product developments. For more information, visit www.ridgid.com/100.
