FULL NEWSLETTER

To Our Chapter 57 IRWA Members . . .

Hello 2025! I hope your year is treating
you well so far with nothing but positive
energy and good vibes. I don’t feel like
there was much of a slowdown as we have
felt in prior years, and everyone has just
jumped right in full force. Our Board met
for the first time in January, and we
discussed various topics including our
upcoming Chapter 57 Luncheon on
February 12th at the Victoria Club in
Riverside. Our speakers will be Michelle
Holiday and Kit Cole discussing Outreach
and Engagement with Native American
Tribes around Big Energy Infrastructure.
We are looking forward to this luncheon
and we hope to see you all there. Please
don’t forget to register. We also have
Course 901 Engineering Plan
Development and Application on February
27th and course 902 Property Descriptions
on February 28th being offered in person.
If you have not registered, please do so as
there are still spots available. You will not
want to miss out.

​Our Chapter representatives will be
attending the Region 1 Spring Forum in
Palm Springs in May. We can’t wait to
share all the updates from the forum that
may benefit our members. A reminder to
register if you are planning on attending
the IRWA Education Conference in
Virginia Beach, June 1-4, 2025.

In other news, the Chapter will be opening
nominations for officers soon and if you
are interested in serving and volunteering
at the local chapter level, please email me
at [email protected].

See you all at the February Luncheon!

Cheers!
Darcy
