Engineers Week Activities are Picking Up!

We are now in September, and it has been a very busy few weeks for us. Things have been pretty interesting following the Olympics, the passing of Tropical Storm Gustav, and rains from Hanna, Ike and possibly Josephine.

Anyway, the organizing team for the 5K road race has been very busy. There have been a few practice runs of the last few Saturdays (in between the rains). The interest in the event is great too. The last time I looked at the Facebook group, there are 80 persons confirmed to participate, and another 109 maybes. Check the link.

To make the process of signing up easier, we have included an online registration link. Those of you who prefer the traditional way of signing up, you can download a form here as well. Remember, the Run is on Sunday, September 21st, at the Hope Gardens. Start time is 6 a.m., so get your rest the night before.


Plans for the Expo and Presentation series are also advanced as well. So far, we have confirmed exhibitors from the USA as well as locally. The slate of presentations is almost ready, and we will share it with you as soon as we have finalized the details.

Remember, the official opening ceremony is Wednesday September 24th, and the Expo starts on the same day, and runs until Thursday, September 25th. Again, for details, visit the Engineers Week page on our website.

Looking forward to seeing you at as many of the events as possible.
