Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals and their fans (Tom Blackburn) for an amazing World Series victory. For those of you who missed it, game six of the World Series was one of the most impressive comebacks of all time. The Cardinals overcame a two run deficit in the ninth inning and again in the tenth inning. Finally in the eleventh inning the Cardinals won the game with a walk off solo homerun and forced a game seven which they also won. The Cardinal’s strong offensive “lineup” kept them alive and led them to the championship.
Speaking of “lineups,” your Sierra Chapter Board of Directors has set an impressive program “lineup” for the next several months. Free up your calendars so you can lock in the following dates:
November 16: Sierra Chapter dinner with guest speaker Eric Nagy, USACE Chief of the Design Branch
January 6: Sierra Chapter joint luncheon with APWA and guest speaker Senator Anthony Cannella
February 15: Sierra Chapter’s 2nd Annual Past Presidents dinner with guest speaker Kevin Payne, Assistant Director of the Roseville Planning & Redevelopment Department
Let’s rally our members to boost attendance for these upcoming events. In last month’s newsletter I established the goal of fifty percent member firm attendance. It is vital to our organization to demonstrate our strength as we interface with public agency officials and state politicians. Your firm’s participation and representation is important. I hope to see you on November 16th.
