This was quite a busy week for the YMF. We had 6 representatives attending the Northeast Regional Younger Member Conference (NERYMC) in Princeton, NJ this weekend. We also participated in the Future City Competition, held at Villanova University, where we presented an award for "Most Innovative Civil Engineering Design" to one lucky team. Lastly, today our new website goes online. We've spent quite a lot of time revising it so let us know what you think and if you run into any problems so that we can correct them.

We also spent a lot of time finalizing plans for the 11th Annual Winter Social which is TOMORROW! Without a doubt, this will be our biggest Winter Social to date! Over 160 people have already RSVP'ed for this event and we've already received in excess of $1200 in donations from area companies for our charity auction. If you haven't done so already, make plans to attend and don't forget to RSVP. For more information, check out the events page.
