From the Desk of the President

      Now that summer is behind us, I hope everyone had an enjoyable Labor Day.

Our 2026 National Convention was well attended—especially given the time frame we were working with. I’m grateful to everyone who participated, and I’m happy to say that all who attended had a great time.

I’d like to extend my sincere thanks to the NAPEEF Board for allowing us to use their newly renovated space for our national meeting. It was also wonderful to once again be able to see the collection of National Engineer publications on display.

Thank you to the membership for voting in not only myself, but also the Board for a second term. The trust you place in us does not go unnoticed. We will continue to bring the membership the best plan forward, and we remain available to answer any questions any member may have.

Finally, thank you to the chapters that continue to host membership and networking events. It is your ongoing efforts that keep this Association moving forward.

Every step forward brings us closer to the future

Sincerely,

Stephen J. Carbone
National President
