Since our last newsletter was sent, we've been busy hosting our first specialty conference of the season, attending WEFTEC, and getting ready for our upcoming conferences. Next week, we'll be co-hosting a Residuals and Biosolids conference with NEBRA, and in November, we are hosting an IT/Asset Management Fair with NEWWA and a Utility Management Conference. Additionally, more information about our 2020 Annual Conference & Exhibit is beginning to become available, including sponsorship enrollment, exhibit registration, and conference hotel reservations.
One event that will not be on our fall calendar, however, is our annual Golf Classic. To continue to raise funds for our training, scholarship, and education programs, as we have previously done with the Golf Classic, we will be hosting a new fundraising event for the first time this year. We're excited to share more information about this event later this month.
Check out the rest of the newsletter for more on committee news and details on upcoming events. Until next newsletter, have a great month and we hope to see you at some of our upcoming events.
As always, we invite you to contact Jordan Gosselin at
jgosselin@newea.org
with committee news and updates you would like to share in future editions.
