Share and Win!

Each month this summer, SPED will award a prize to a SPED member or PPD certified piper

$100 for the best article about the Process Piping Industry submitted for publication in the SPED Update. The program begins in June 2010 and will continue through August 2010.

The goal of this program is to give a voice to SPED members and SPED certified pipers, and to encourage pipers to pass along their advice to others in the field. Winners will be recognized at the SPED Annual General Business Meeting in November.

Articles that are not selected may be published on www.spedweb.com or in the SPED Update. Once the winner is selected, the author will be notified by email, and may collect their $100 at the SPED office, or by U.S. Postal Service.
