If you’re like me, you’re excited<br />
about the prospect of getting out<br />
on the golf course this month for<br />
the Chief Engineers’ 82nd Annual<br />
Golf Outing. It’s our most popular<br />
event of the year by far — an<br />
incredible, longstanding tradition<br />
that we’re proud to continue.<br />
We’ll meet out at Cog Hill on<br />
Friday, Sept. 9th, for a 9:00am<br />
shotgun start. Registration is<br />
open now, so if you haven’t<br />
signed up with your foursome<br />
yet, please do so at your earliest<br />
convenience so we can have<br />
as accurate a head count as we<br />
can get in the weeks before the<br />
event. I know that a couple of<br />
e-blasts have gone out with information on the event and sponsorship<br />
opportunities, but if you have questions, please feel free to get in touch<br />
with Board members Alex Boerner (aboerner@chiefengineer.org), Kevin<br />
Kenzinger (312-296-5603) or Brendan Winters (773-457-6403).<br />
Several raffles also will take place that same day, not least our annual<br />
Harley-Davidson raffle, in which one winner can ride away with a Harley-Davidson<br />
motorcycle or the option of $10,000 cash. Tickets for the<br />
raffle are $100 apiece and are limited. To secure yours, reach out to any<br />
of the Board members. The stakes are high, and the opportunity is short,<br />
so if you want to take a chance, plan on doing so soon!<br />
As always, we remain grateful to our Associate Member organizations<br />
for their constant support of the Chief Engineers, and I urge you to reach<br />
out to them whenever you need to outsource any of the work that needs<br />
doing. With summer coming to a close, while we may not want to think<br />
about the cold that’s coming our way, we’ll at least need to do so to<br />
ensure that our boiler and heating systems are clean and properly tuned<br />
up for the harshness of winter. We’ll also want to ensure that our cooling<br />
systems are all in good repair after running so hard all summer long.<br />
Keep your Quick Shoppers handy.<br />
Before long, we’ll be thinking about our Oktoberfest meeting — the<br />
first proper meeting of our <strong>2022</strong>-2023 year — and getting back into our<br />
monthly meeting routine. We’ll let you know as soon as possible when<br />
and where the event will take place, but for now, we look forward to<br />
seeing all of you on the links at Cog Hill on the 9th!<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Ken Botta<br />
Sean Casey<br />
