Younger Member's Report

Fellow Younger Members,

Below is a recap of last month’s events and information regarding upcoming events.

Recap

9^th Annual Golf Tournament: On Friday, May 14^th the Younger Members hosted the 9^th Annual ASCE Golf Tournament to benefit our scholarship fund for our local universities. The scramble-style tourney was held at the Cypresswood Golf Course. There were 53 players in attendance, each helping raise $3,300 for our scholarship fund. The winning team, consisting of David Ellett, Kirk Eager, and Franco Puentes, shot an impressive 60 strokes. Special thanks to our sponsors and also Scott Marr and Jeri Ji for organizing this event.

Joint Rock Climbing Event w/ AIChe: On Saturday May 15^th, we participated in a joint social event with AIChe at the Texas Rock Gym. There were 14 people between both societies in attendance. Everyone that attempted seemed to be successful at making it to the top at least once. After we exhausted ourselves from our respective climbs we enjoyed some pizza and conversation. Special thanks to Laura Espinoza for helping put on this event.
