Happy National Volunteer Month!
I would like to dedicate this month’s President’s Message to all of SMPS Connecticut’s hard-working volunteers! Some of you might not know that SMPS Connecticut is 100% volunteer run – all of the amazing things we do, from our programs, educations workshops, mentorship cohorts, newsletters and emails, to membership and industry outreach, would not be possible without our volunteers dedicating their precious time to make it all happen. They do this on top of the demands of their A/E/C careers in order to give back to other SMPS members and our industry. I am truly honored as the current SMPS Connecticut president to be able to work with and learn from all of our rockstar volunteers. Thank you to the board and all the committee volunteers!
Thank you again to all 35 of SMPS Connecticut’s volunteers (that’s an impressive 33% of our total membership)! If you’re interested in getting engaged and joining our group of volunteers check out our committees page for volunteer opportunities and descriptions.
Below is what we’ve been working on for the month of April:
- Connecticut’s Cannabis Market – How We Got Here and Where We’re Going | April 20th. Join us for our first in-person program of 2022! Our panel of industry experts will cover the following topics: overview/history of CT’s cannabis market; project opportunities within this emerging market; challenges and design requirements of cannabis facilities; marketing best practices; and more! Registration is open until 5pm on Tuesday.
- Podcasts for A/E/C Marketers | April 27th. Join us and Keelin Cox, CPSM, ENV SP, host of the AEC Marketeer podcast, to learn all the steps for starting a podcast & tips for making it a success!
Also, if you’re an SMPS Connecticut member don’t miss our upcoming cohort meetings:
- May 5th Mentorship Cohort: Being Successful as an Introvert in an Extroverted Role
- June 2nd Mentorship Cohorts Meetup - Managing Doer Sellers
To keep up with all the amazing things SMPS Connecticut volunteers are working on make sure to check our social media (LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter) and our Wednesdays are for SMPS CT emails (keep an eye on your inbox the second and fourth Wednesdays of every month!) for more exciting announcements. No matter your experience-level, role, or status in the A/E/C industry, we are looking forward to you becoming a part of the SMPS Connecticut community! Join our community of marketers, business developers, technical professionals, students, business owners and principals, and get involved: become a member, join a committee, lead a program, join the mentorship cohort, or attend an event.
Thank you!

Marta Dabrowski, CPSM
