We hope you all had a wonderful summer and are gearing up for another busy heating season.
Have you taken a look at the OESP calendar online lately? Local chapters throughout the region spent the summer planning new meetings and events for you. Check the calendar to see all that awaits you in the coming months! I am pleased to say that it appears most chapters are coming back to in-person meetings, a very welcome return!
Take a look HERE and make note of the date and time of your next chapter meeting. Then, put it in your calendar and make sure you go. One of the biggest values of your membership is the training provided locally every single month, from colleagues eager to help you thrive.
Each month there are training sessions held across the OESP region. Surely one of them must be near you? And if not, let us know! Maybe there is interest in starting a chapter in your area. Our membership team is here to help.
We are happy to welcome the Poconos Chapter under the leadership of Chapter President Sal Furino. Many thanks to all those who worked hard to make this happen! If you are in the area, please contact either Sal or OESP HQ if you have interest in getting involved.
And another new chapter is hoping to get started as well. The New England Tri-State Chapter representing Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont will be holding a kickoff meeting on Tuesday, September 21 at 6 p.m. at Terrazza Ristorante in Greenfield, Ma. We hope to see you there. Please contact Rick Glownia or Scott Nicholas for more information.
If you’re on the OESP Board (or would like to be) and haven’t signed up for the Oilheat Retreat in Bethlehem, please contact us as soon as possible to reserve your space. And we’ll be doing a spouse outing on Saturday, so please send us your spouse’s email if she or he would like to participate. If you’re in the area and are interested in joining us for an evening in the always-fun OESP Hospitality room, let us know that too. OESP is always happy to accommodate you.
Do you have a friend or colleague that would benefit from membership in OESP? Bring them along to a fall meeting. It is more important than ever to continue to grow our great association and educate the next generation of professionals.
New members can join now and get a “nearly 2 for 1” on the upcoming heating season. They will get the remainder of 2021 and all of 2022 included for just one price.
OESP is always looking for people who are interested in making a difference in their career and the association. One of the ways is by providing networking opportunities to help you grow.
Everyone wants to work with people they know, so get involved in your local chapter and experience the difference it will make for you. Please contact OESP HQ or your local chapter president to learn how you can make a bigger difference.
By now, you have seen plenty from our great and generous advertisers. Taco, R.W. Beckett, Suntec Industries, Carlin/Hyrdolevel, General Filters, Wohler, Sid Harvey, Roth, Weil-McLain and Energy Kinetics. Their logos are prominently featured at the top of this issue, as part of their strategic annual marketing package with OESP. Your company could be in the next issue – the 2022 sponsorship packages will be unveiled shortly.
On behalf of Jonathan Jaffe, Meredith Levy, Sean Conklin and the rest of the OESP management team, it continues to be a pleasure to serve the association. We look forward to seeing you in beautiful Bethlehem for the late summer get-away.
