President’s Message
The Engineer’s Club of Kansas City’s mission is to “perpetuate the engineering profession by inspiring and assisting the next generation.” We’ve done exactly that for over 100 years as evidenced by providing more than $1 million in scholarships to local university students pursuing engineering-related degrees.
However, we are just the conduit. It is the generosity of so many KC-area engineering, construction, and service provider firms that step up each year to donate, sponsor, participate, and volunteer in our various fundraiser events.
The support that YOU provide allows US to support the next generation of engineers. From the Board, we sincerely thank you for your generosity and look forward to your participation in our three big fundraising events in 2022/23: Fall TopGolf (Oct/Nov), Shrimp Bingo (February 10, 2023—yes, you should save the date!), and our Spring Golf outing (Apr/May).
As with most industry associations, we are a 100% volunteer-run group. We are always looking for the next generation of volunteers and leaders. Please reach out to any of the officers or Board members to learn more about our various committees and volunteer roles. I can tell you from personal experience, it is very rewarding. I consider being entrusted to serve this year as President of the Engineer’s Club to be one of the highlights of my career.
To make sure you stay up to date, please click here to subscribe to announcements about upcoming events. Joining or renewing your membership is as easy as clicking here. An annual membership of just $50 allows you early access to register for the coveted Shrimp Bingo tickets and Spring Golf, both regularly sold-out http://eclubofkc.org/events.
I want to thank and recognize the 2022/23 leadership team serving with me this year. Our Officers are: Phil Jennings (Vice President), Julie Jenson (Treasurer), and Miranda Hamrick (Secretary), who are supported by Board members: Cheryl Kelley, Chester Bender, Tony O’Malley, Jason Waldron, and Nathan Hladky.
We look forward to seeing you at our monthly luncheon series that feature timely and noteworthy speakers and topics. Our first luncheon of the year on September 13, 2022, is one you won’t want to miss. Our keynote speaker is Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas who has graciously agreed to join us for the third year in a row. You’ll want to register soon as space is limited to the first 80 registrants.
The Engineer’s Club, and especially our scholarship recipients, THANK YOU for your past and continued generosity and support!
Regards,
Scott Phillips, Assoc DBIA™, Garney Construction

SEPTEMBER 13, 2022 LUNCHEON
PLEASE JOIN US ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2022 FOR THE KICK-OFF OF THE 2022-2023 ECKC MONTHLY LUNCHEON SERIES. THIS EVENT IS SCHEDULED TO SELL OUT SO SIGN UP EARLY.
Keynote Speaker:
KC Mayor Quinton Lucas, “Mayor Q,” will be kicking off the 2022-2023 KC Engineering Club Monthly Luncheon Series on Tuesday, September 13, 2022.
Mayor Q was sworn in as the 55th mayor of Kansas City on August 1, 2019. As mayor, Quinton has prioritized making Kansas City’s neighborhoods safer, creating more accessible and affordable housing and public transportation, fostering a healthier community and improving basic services. Quinton created and chairs the City’s Special Committee on Housing Policy.
Born and raised in Kansas City, Quinton has spent most of his life in the city’s urban core. As a child, he moved often and experienced homelessness, sometimes staying with family or friends, or residing in a motel. Despite these challenges, Quinton remained focused on his schoolwork, earning academic scholarships to high school, college and Cornell Law School before returning home to Kansas City.
Since 2012, Quinton has been a member of the University of Kansas Law School faculty, where he served as one of the youngest tenure-track law professors in the country. He is active in the Kansas City community and volunteers extensively in area schools and organizations, including providing mentorship in local prisons.
Location: This event will be at a new location for this luncheon only. The event will occur at The Rockhill Grille Reserve Event Space which is located at 2000 Grand Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64108. The event space door is located on the west side of The Rockhill Grille Restaurant on 20th Street. You will not enter the event space through the restaurant so do not walk in the front door of The Rockhill Grille Restaurant. There is a door located on the west side of the restaurant with 2000 on the door. Enter through this door and there will be an elevator that will take you to the 3rd floor. There is plenty of parking nearby or the streetcar is available and will drop you off 2 blocks away.
Cost: $45.00 per person. There are 100 spots available so this event is expected to sell out, so sign up early.
