ESWP Golf Outing
Rain Rain go away (it never did), come again another day! The ESWP Golf Outing was held on Monday, September 30 at Southpointe Golf Club in a steady drizzle. While the course was in terrific shape and held up well, it was a soggy day for the golfers, who played thru the rain to play all 18 holes. Thanks to all of our Sponsors, and Gift Baskets donors for making it a special day! Congratulations to our winners in golf and raffle prizes! And thanks to all of our golfers for sticking with their round of golf!

The 2024 Pennsylvania Brownfields Conference was held from March 25 to the 27th at the Penn Stater Conference Center in State College, PA.
With nearly 400 registrants in the conference, we started with the EPA Grant Writing workshop, followed by the CABIN Summit on Monday afternoon. Extras at the conference included a flyfishing expedition that received many very favorable comments. Monday evenings Welcome Reception was held at the Axemann Brewery and provided a great networking opportunity for the attendees after a four year hiatus from the previous conference. Tuesday and Wednesday were filled with multiple breakout sessions that were all very well attended – thanks to all of the presenters in the sessions for providing great content. In addition, there were several plenary sessions where speakers from EPA, and DEP, provided keynote comments. We also featured two lunchtime plenary sessions with book author Joel Burcat, and Matt Ward that were well attended, and well received!
