CONFERENCE OVERVIEW: Wednesday starts with a friendly golf outing and a technical tour highlighting the new UW-P Sesquicentennial Hall, followed by a Get Acquainted Party featuring local BBQ at the Broske Center (400 Pitt St., Platteville, WI) and a YP Committee gathering (with pizza) at the legendary Steve’s Pizza Palace (175 W. Main St., Platteville, WI).

Thursday and Friday will be dedicated to the Chapter’s mission of providing informative, relevant and timely public works educational topics while earning continuing education credits. Of note for Thursday is that field trips are included in the schedule… that’s right, field trips! These 2-hour sessions will feature (tentative) topics on historical preservation, facility maintenance and UW-P’s DOT highway lab. Also expect involvement from UWP faculty and students throughout the day.

Another twist! The Thursday night scholarship banquet will feature keynote speaker Steve Bench. Steve will present “Attracting Tomorrow’s Talent with Today’s Leaders” to conference attendees, faculty and students at the banquet. Steve will return Friday morning to present a general session titled “Next Generation Perspectives: Gen Z Survival Guide.”
