CHAPTER 14 MAKES HISTORY!

The momentum continues—and now it’s official. The International Right of Way Association (IRWA) has selected Potomac Chapter 14 as the host of the 2030 Annual Education Conference in Washington, DC!

This marks a significant milestone not only for our chapter, but for the entire Region 3 community. After a competitive and collaborative bid process, this selection reflects the strength, professionalism, and commitment that Chapter 14 consistently brings to the Right-of-Way industry.

The Road to 2030 Starts Now

While 2030 may seem far away, the work begins immediately. Hosting an international conference of this scale requires strategic planning, coordination, and participation from members across all disciplines.

Key focus areas moving forward include:

• Conference planning and logistics development

• Volunteer recruitment and engagement opportunities

• Sponsorship outreach and partnership development

• Formation of the Host Committee and leadership teams

This is more than an event—it’s an opportunity to showcase the expertise, diversity, and innovation within our region on a global stage.

A Historic Opportunity for Chapter 14

Being selected as a host chapter is both an honor and a responsibility. Chapter 14 now joins a distinguished group of chapters that have led the way in delivering impactful, high-quality educational experiences for IRWA members worldwide. This achievement is the result of collective effort. From leadership to members who supported the bid process, every contribution helped bring this vision to life.
