CONSTRUCT Baltimore September 9-12, 2014 Photos Looking down from the top of Baltimore’s World Trade Center on a beautiful September evening was special, but especially so when we were there to honor our own Ann Baker, FCSI for her admission to fellowship in CSI. Ann, along with 3 other members, received this honor for outstanding and careerlong service to the mission of CSI. CONSTRUCT included 3-1/2 packed days of outstanding events, tours, education, product show, leadership training, and the CSI annual meeting.

Institute is working hard to engage all members in new ways of understanding and spreading the word of CSI as the nexus of Building Knowledge and Improving Project Delivery.

Hard to beat the walk to the World Trade Center with bagpipe accompaniment by Denver’s Mike Young in full Scottish regalia. Our Liz O’Sullivan and Morayma Salas certainly enjoyed the scene.

CSI’s new Night Out, a 4-hour social extravaganza with food, drinks, and live music at the Power Plant Live venue concluded a stimulating week.

Everyone you met was a CSI member, but in a casual and fun atmosphere, welcome after a heavily planned week.

Next year CONSTRUCT meets in St. Louis, September 30 – October 3, 2015.
