Now in its 8th year, the PDCA Northeast Chapter held its annual 'Sporting Clays' event on August 11th, at the scenic Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays near Coplay, PA, attracting more than 70 deep foundations professionals from the region. The popular shooting competition brings Chapter members together for a day of friendly competition and fundraising. As it continually strives to enrich its membership on geotechnical concepts, equipment technologies, and other industry developments, the annual 'Sporting Clays' outing collects donations from participants to help fund ongoing educational programming and scholarships.
Several benefactors supplemented the Chapter's educational development coffers, while also enhancing 2023's rendition of the annual gathering at the gun range. Those included, Event Sponsor International Construction Equipment, Lunch Sponsor Equipment Corporation of America, Cigar Sponsor R. Kremer & Son Marine Contractors, LLC, Shooting Station Sponsors George Harms Construction Company (x3), Triad Metals, Junttan USA, and Simpson and Brown.
Many thanks to the dozens of ace marksmen who ventured to the 'stunning grounds' at Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays for the August outing. The Northeast Chapter convenes again on November 8th for a dinner meeting and Casino Night, watch your inbox for details, coming soon!
Scenes from the event, including individual shooter recognitions and views of the squads on the scenic course:
