The 8th Annual Shrimp Boil is here – bring your friends. This is the time in our Chapter where we get to relax and have some fun. I’d like to thank Dan Cross for his help organizing the event once again. The Shrimp Boil will be held at the Winter Park Farmer’s Market on March 25th from 6pm-9pm. Who knows, you may see some ASHRAE members there that you haven’t seen at our meetings all year. The Shrimp Boil does tend to be the Easter of our chapter, so if you run into someone you haven’t seen in a long time, encourage them to attend our monthly meetings.
Our YEA dodgeball event was an awesome success! We had 48 players and 4 hours of fun. In the end, the team from Xnth took home bragging rights. I can’t wait for next year!!
Until then, we have three special events on the horizon that present a great opportunity for both members and sponsors.
The Spring Golf Outing is on April 9th at Sanctuary Ridge. A tremendous amount of effort goes into coordinating this event, and I’d like to thank Firouz and his team for their leadership. Please register your foursomes and hole sponsorships today. More information can be found at http://ashrae-cfl.org/events/spring-golf-tournament/.
On May 11th, the ASPE/ASHRAE product show will be held at the Central Florida fairgrounds. ASPE has planned a “Mexican Fiesta” theme for the show this year so get your sombreros ready. Booths are available. Please visit www.ashrae-cfl.org/events/product-show/ for more information.
Most importantly, I want to remind you that at the end of the ASHRAE year, our chapter is hosting the Chapter’s Regional Conference (CRC) here in Orlando. The CRC will be located at the Rosen Centre on International Drive this August. We want to make sure that we put our best foot forward for our region, and to do this we need your help. Our biggest challenge in putting this event together is sponsorships. Please consider supporting our CRC – we have some excellent sponsorship opportunities available.
