CWA Members –
As we all head into Q2 I wanted to reach out to the members with a couple of updates.
As you all know, things are always changing in our sector. This industry has rewarded us with some great years but also has presented us with some struggles in other years. The start of the new year has been challenging for many and as an association, we want to do all that we can to help those currently unemployed. The CWA Job Board is still live on the website, but we want help in a more direct way. Therefore, if your company is hiring, please send Ashley Jackson (ashley.jackson@wia.org) the job listing and the contact person. Once we have all the listings in, she will send out an eBlast highlighting those positions. Our hope is to connect employers to potential candidates quickly. All listings will also be uploaded to the CWA Job Board.
In addition, we are looking for members to join the CWA Regulatory Committee. Recently some regulatory issues have arisen in the CWA that need to be addressed. Specifically, concern over RF emissions, questions regarding 6409 and colocation on electrical towers. We are looking for more people to join the committee, as well as other committees, so if interested, please click here to view the details and to sign-up.
We recently sent out the CWA Event Calendar via an eBlast. The first event will be a Networking Social on April 10th, the evening before the Music Movement Golf Tournament in Charleston. Click here to register. We will follow that up with our Annual Golf Tournament on September 11th at the Grandover Resort in Greensboro. We recognize the time period is much later than normal, but this was the only time of year we could secure two golf courses at a reasonable rate. The US Open is being held in Pinehurst this year, and rates have doubled, and most hotels are sold out through the spring and summer months. We hope to get back to Pinehurst next year. Finally, our Annual Holiday Social will be on December 12th at the Angus Barn in Raleigh. We may potentially add an Educational Event to the calendar, so continue to check the website for updates.
We look forward to seeing you at one of our events this year. Thanks for supporting the CWA!
