With the start of summer, the Young Professionals hosted their last social event of the year at Fenway Park to watch the Red Sox take on the Orioles on June 7. The night started off with a pre-game social at Remy's bar where everyone met and picked up their tickets. The event had a great turnout - including some familiar faces but also many new ones. Special thanks to Chiderah Okoye of Rockwell Automation for organizing the event.

Great seats, beautiful weather and a win for the Sox - who could ask for more?!	Clay Buchholtz's four-hit shutout against the Orioles provided a treat for the Chapter's YPs on June 7th.

Our next event will be the YP softball game vs. the seasoned veterans on August 16. This has been a great event the past few years (although last year's event was cancelled due to the weather), allowing the Young Professionals a chance to meet and network with the Chapter's "seasoned veterans," and hopefully take home the bragging rights for the rest of the year! The losing team has also been known to purchase the first round of drinks at the nearby Beacon Hill Pub after the game. Spread the word and make sure to bring your friends!

The Chapter also recently won the YP membership recruitment competition sponsored by ISPE International, and as a result was awarded five free CPIP^TM applications. The recipients were Jakub Mocny, Mani Mohapatra, Sweta Murarka, Aarash Navabi, and Jillian Willard. Congratulations and good luck to all of the recipients!

When September rolls around, the Young Professionals will be back in full swing planning the upcoming year's socials and educational events. Also, don't forget to tell non-members about the new discounted ISPE membership rate for Young Professionals!
