Dear Friends,

On behalf of Salt Lake Community College and the school districts of the Wasatch Front South Region, I would like to invite you to participate in an expanded advisory opportunity.  As many of you are aware, Salt Lake Community College and several of the school districts along the Wasatch Front have been operating independent of one another when it comes to seeking advisory input from local construction trades partners.  This practice has resulted in many of you sitting on multiple advisory boards in your efforts to support the local education programs.  As education partners, we have determined this to be an unnecessary duplication of efforts and would like to remedy the situation in honor of the time being requested from our industry partners.  Effective immediately, there will be a single construction trades advisory committee to serve the educational needs of the entire Wasatch Front South Region.  These advisory meetings will be held at the Association of General Contractors (AGC) headquarters, located at 2207 South 1070 West Salt Lake City, Utah, and will be chaired by Joey Gilbert.  The first meeting is scheduled to take place January 21^st from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., and we would love to have your participation.  Subsequent meetings are being planned for September 9, 2026, January 13, 2027, and April 21, 2027.  Please save these dates on your calendar and plan to join us.  If there are other members of the construction trades community who may be interested in participating with this committee, please feel free to share this invitation. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to contact me at the numbers listed below.  I look to seeing you on January 21^st.

We're excited to announce that the USU Aggie Invite will be held on Tuesday, October 20, 2026 on the USU Logan Campus from 8:30 am - 4:00 pm. As in previous years, we'll be hosting a combined DECA and FBLA event.

We know this date falls during Jordan School District's fall break. As we evaluated options, we took into account school district calendars, USU space availability, and several other logistical factors, and October 20 was the date that worked best overall.

We'll be finalizing details over the summer and will keep you both informed as plans come together. In the meantime, would you be willing to send a Save the Date to your advisors so they can get it on their fall calendars?

Thank you for your continued partnership. We're looking forward to another great event!
