Rovani Graphics

Rovani Graphics was hands down the most informational trip we have taken so far. It was a very friendly, family oriented business and the current owner and President, Jim Simpkins seemed thrilled to have us visit. First, he took us in a computer type room where the pages they print are designed. He talked to us about past and current projects, and even told us a story about a time they made a mistake to stress just how important attention to detail is in a printing career. It was very beneficial to hear a story like that because I'm sure attention to detail is important in most any career, especially those in the communication field. Then, Jim took us to the room where all the printing actually goes on. We got to see the different stages of color a page goes through and the workings of an old dark room, which I unfortunately had to skip. Strange doors make me nervous, or something like that. Finally, we saw where they cut and folded their pages (It may seem boring, but was actually very interesting) and met Rovani himself. They sent us off with a picture of us in front of the building, notepads, and a friendly offer to come back and visit anytime. Overall, it was a fun learning experience and I'm definitely glad I went!
