Happy holidays!
I hope you all are staying warm this December as it seems winter showed up rather abruptly. Thankfully ASCE MN has several upcoming events planned to help starve off the winter blues! We hope you check out our Dec. Section meeting next Tuesday in collaboration with our Legislative Committee, which will highlight the ASCE Report Card process. This will be especially helpful to those interested in joining our Report Card Committee in preparation for our 2026 state update. Updating our report card is no small feat and we need as much help as possible in making sure the state of our infrastructure is accurately represented. All are welcome to attend! If you are interested in joining the Report Card Committee, please reach out to Hannah at reportcard@ascemn.org.
On another exiting note is our annual Membership Appreciation night, held at Brit's Pub in Minneapolis! This is one our favorite events of the year and we hope you all make an effort to join us as we thank you for being a dedicated contributing member to our Section (did I mention it's free?)
Lastly I wanted to remind you all that we still have some open positions on our Board and Committees. If you are interested in joining us, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at president@ascemn.org and let me know what you are interested in contributing!
Take care and I wish you a lovely holiday season,
Lauren Linderman, Ph.D.
