Meetings you should know about...

Organization: The Society of Texas Environmental Professionals (STEP) Fort Worth Chapter
Date of Meeting: September 30, 2011 11:30am to 1pm
Topic: "DFW Connector Project - Environmental Excellence"
Speaker: Mr. John Gage with NorthGate Constructors
www.txstep.org for location and whom to RSVP to.

These meetings are generally really good if you can get to them.  They tend to have a variety of different speakers but mostly pull from the consulting side.

Organization: North Texas Association of Environmental Professionals (NTAEP)
Date:  Third Wednesday of September
Topic:  This is their yearly social.  They take two months off in the summer (the busy months) and come back in the fall.
Location: Humperdinks.  I will post the address when I get it.  It is in Dallas?  It will be 6:00pm to 8:00pm
They will be announcing new board members and the potential line up for the upcoming year.

This group is different than STEP.  They tend to draw from a different crowd.  They do have a lot of consultants but they also have city workers, industry workers, and also some archaeologist come as well.  Within the past two years their speakers have improved greatly and attendance is up.  They are very laid back and casual.  They usually meet on the third Wednesday of the month at Spring Creek BBQ in Irving Texas off of Beltline.
