YP Update by Shanna McKelvain

Although the first quarter is ending, the YP’s are just getting

started! This group wasted no time saying Cheers to the New

Year, they hosted the first quarterly Happy Hour on January

25th at Holman Draft Hall. The evenings’ festivities included

good weather and even better networking with over 80 people

in attendance. The outdoor patio was the perfect spot to reconnect and reengage with colleagues after a busy holiday season. Newcomers and seasoned YP vets alike were able to share ideas or make new connections, showcasing the importance of events such as these.

On March 7th, the YP’s hosted the 6th annual PVF Young Professional’s Sporting Clays Classic. This event helps fund scholarships for students seeking careers in the PVF industry and we were able to raise $40,247 dollars this year! Our sincerest gratitude to the 248 participants, sponsors, and volunteers, they are the heart and soul of events like these.  A very special thank you to our title sponsor, Neway, and the YP’s very own Jeff Crocker (Edgen) and Courtney Riggs (Edgen) for organizing the event. Their hard work and dedication to the Young Professionals is greatly appreciated.
