The PSI Chapter set a new fundraising record for its academic scholarship program at its PSI Palooza event, held Oct. 23 in Chicago. The event’s success will allow PSI to award $2,000 scholarships to nine students in 2020, beating its previous record of eight scholarships given in 2019 and 2018.
PSI Palooza, held at Lucky Strike Chicago, combined the chapter’s fundraising efforts with a variety of social activities, including a bowling tournament, billiards, ping pong, and a networking lounge area. The bowling tournament featured nine teams, with a combined team of bowlers from Midland Davis Corp. and Green Bay Packaging winning the tournament. The winning team included Michael Davis, Ashley Gruett, Ryan Larson, Wendy Larson, and Matt Reynders.
This year’s event also raised funds through corporate sponsorships and individual registrations for the tournament’s networking and other activities. PSI thanks the following sponsors for their generous support:
PLATINUM SPONSORS: Balcones Resources, Casella, CellMark, Closed Loop Partners, Greif, Harmon Recycling, Midland Davis Corp., Pioneer Industries International, Potential Industries Inc., Pratt Industries, Recycling Management Systems (RMS), Texas Recycling, Waste Management, and WestRock.
