With the objective to continue growing the organization through new member development, as well as inspire yet another U.S. region with a significant pile driving industry to consider forming a PDCA Chapter, the Pile Driving Contractors Association hosted the latest in an ongoing series of regional networking receptions in Minneapolis, MN, the Twin Cities Social. The event took place Thursday evening, August 22nd, at Fulton Taproom in the city's downtown sports district. Pile driving professionals from near and far attended the reception that featured networking and a short program that introduced attendees to PDCA.
During the program, PDCA Executive Director Frank Peters gave a warm welcome to event sponsors and acknowledged their generous support to the Association and its outreach into the Minnesota pile driving market. He then passed the microphone around the room to allow each attendee to introduce him or herself to the group. He went on discuss PDCA and its critical function in the driven pile industry. Among the highlights he stressed were the productivity of a wide-range of PDCA standing committees, the opportunities available through PDCA's active schedule of live and virtual educational programming, and the importance of the organization's first-ever (and the first publicly-known) vibrations study which is in progress expected to generate expert analysis and data in coming months. Also attending was PDCA President Brian Heck who gave a short welcome to attendees following Peters' presentation.
PDCA thanks the following sponsors of the Twin Cities Social:
