The full week surrounding George Washington’s birthday is National Engineers Week. The National Society of Professional Engineers created that week in 1951. They want to draw attention to the importance of engineers in our society.
How to observe this coming special week:
- Take an engineer to lunch.
- Post a picture on your social media showing an engineering marvel. It can be a bridge, kitchen gadget, tool, or a building or vehicle.
- Invite a local engineer to speak at a meeting of your chamber of commerce.
- Give all your engineer friends some engraved Leatherman tools. They will appreciate them.
