FY 2019 Events
Kick-off Summer Picnic
On Thursday, August 30th we had a great turnout for our Annual Kickoff meeting which we held as a picnic at Pratt's Falls County Park. Attendees enjoyed networking, meeting this year's new Executive Board, and socializing while also discussing ideas for events and activities this coming year. Thank you, everyone who attended!
Apple Picking
Despite a chilly forecast on Saturday, October 20th, we had a lovely turnout for our annual apple picking outing. Three members from the Greater Syracuse Area and about a 12 from the Syracuse University sections mingled over cider and fritters before heading out into the orchard. This event provided the opportunity for networking among sections and informal mentoring between professional and collegiate members. Thanks to all who came!
Career Fair Prep @ SU
In November 5 members of our section met with students from Syracuse University's SWE section for a pannel and Q&A on career paths. We also did resume reviews and mock interviews.
Holiday Dinner
In December we held our annual Holiday Dinner at Empire Brewing Company in Armory Square. Roughly a dozen members and friends attended and enjoyed good food and conversation.
WE Local- Baltimore
In early February the Greater Syracuse Area section was represented by 7 members at our nearest WE Local conference. At the conference they attended networking events, professional development workshops, and workshops on outreach events. Some also worked at the conference career fair on behalf of their employers.
PDH Seminar- "Straw Bale Homes- A Sustainable Solution in Residential Construction"
On February 21st a dozen members and friends attended a PDH seminar presented by Julia Furlong of Beardsley Architects+Engineers. The seminar was hosted by Beardsley, who also sponsored food.
Scholarship Reception
On May 20th we recognized 6 young women from the Central New York region who are headed to college for STEM related majors in the coming fall. In addition to our members, we joined by representatives of several of our sponsors, the scholarship recipients, and the recipients families and teachers. The event was hosted by IPD Engineering and the keynote speaker was Teresa Malueg of Lockheed Martin. This was a record breaking year in regards to sponsorship- each recipient received over $3000.
