<strong>PHC</strong>C OHIO PRESIDENT, PAUL EPISCOPO<br />
Fellow <strong>PHC</strong>C Members,<br />
I’m Paul Episcopo and I’m currently proudly serving<br />
as your President of <strong>PHC</strong>C <strong>Ohio</strong>. I’ve been a member<br />
of <strong>PHC</strong>C since 2000. I started my business in 1995,<br />
serving the Northeast <strong>Ohio</strong> area, with commercial<br />
and residential plumbing. I was exposed to this organization,<br />
at the time by my competitors that are now my closest friends.<br />
I encourage everyone to get involved in an association like<br />
<strong>PHC</strong>C. I am, of course, partial to this association and group of<br />
business people and friends involved. This group gives its time,<br />
money and knowledge to help better the plumbing, heating<br />
and cooling industry. The education and relationships you<br />
gain by participating in local meetings, the state and national<br />
conventions, will not only better you as business leader, but also<br />
as a person.<br />
One of the things that makes our association unique, is that we<br />
get involved in political advocacy at the state and national levels.<br />
May 7-8, I will be attending the <strong>PHC</strong>C National Legislative Day<br />
in Washington, D.C. Shortly after that, ACCO and <strong>PHC</strong>C <strong>Ohio</strong><br />
will be holding our Legislative Day on June 4, in Columbus.<br />
Both events give you a chance to meet with your elected officials<br />
from your local area and express your concerns regarding your<br />
business needs. Everything is setup for you by our state and<br />
national associations. All you<br />
need to do is show up and<br />
they point you in the right<br />
direction. On the state side,<br />
we are really starting to see<br />
some momentum with our<br />
residential licensing bill, but we<br />
need your support to cross the<br />
finish line. Please plan now and<br />
take a day of your time to attend<br />
Legislative Day on June 4. I know<br />
you are busy, as we all are, but we<br />
are stronger in numbers. Take<br />
some time to be involved in the industry that has provided a great<br />
living for you and your family to help make it a better future.<br />
Finally, I want to encourage everyone to find time to work,<br />
volunteer in our wonderful association and enjoy life a little.<br />
Spend time with family and friends in doing whatever makes life<br />
enjoyable. I’ll be traveling around the state, visiting each of our<br />
local chapters. Hope to see all of you very soon.<br />
Thanks for allowing me to serve as your President.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Paul J Episcopo<br />
