Greetings ACI Members,

I hope this message finds you well and that you all had a great summer. As we wrap up the third quarter, we are looking forward to seeing you all at the exciting events planned for the rest of the year.

 

We kicked off the quarter with our third annual pickleball tournament in July. Each team rally brought their ‘A’ game, and we had a smashing good time! Congratulations to the first-place team, Jacob Brennan and Charley Dir! You can check out photos from the tournament here. Thank you to Conco who hit it out of the park with the tour of the Ontario Ballpark in August. Our dinner meeting was well attended this month. Ala Douba had a strong presentation and surely strengthened the understanding of the causes of lower compressive strength results for those in attendance.

 

Our next event is the Annual Concrete Awards on October 23^rd. We have a concrete reason to celebrate this year with a record-breaking number of project submissions. This is sure to be a solid awards ceremony and cement-sational evening. Register for the Concrete Awards here.

 

Keep your eyes peeled for events the chapter will be hosting later in the year including:

-          Annual Topgolf outing on November 19^th

-          Holiday mixer on December 17^th

 

The upcoming events can be found here.

 

I look forward to seeing all of you at our programs!

 

All the best,

 

Sydney Zaragoza
