FOCUS ON THE FUTURE!

I am excited to announce that your Chapter’s WiMCO Committee will be hosting our first ever International Data Center Day Event on March 22, 2023. AT&T has graciously agreed to host 30 high school students from across the Northshore School District to learn about the importance of Data Centers and the various paths that can lead to a career in the Data Center industry.

I want to give a big THANK YOU to the following people and organizations who have already pledged contributions to for this event:

We are still in need of sponsors for the following items. Please note that anyone who helps sponsor will have their logo added to the T-Shirt:

• Shirts for Students/Participants - $ 1,000.00
• Name Badges - $ 25.00
• Pen and Paper for Notes (can have your company logo on it if already available) –      Donate branded items or $ 50.00

Lastly, we are looking for one or two more female guest speakers (preferably with an Electrical Engineer or Design Engineer background) and a couple of people to help set up and clean up after the event. We are asking that all participants also help chaperone during the event as well. Time commitment would be from 8:30am – 1:30pm.
