Presidential Message
Hello Alamo ASHRAE,
As we begin wrapping up the ’25–’26 ASHRAE year, I just want to say thank you to everyone who has helped make it such a great year for our chapter.
To our members — thank you for your support, participation, and engagement throughout the year. Every meeting, event, and conversation was better because of the people in this chapter.
To our volunteers — I can’t thank you enough for the time and effort you gave this year. Your commitment is what keeps Alamo ASHRAE moving forward, and I’m incredibly grateful to have worked alongside such a dedicated team.
We also recently wrapped up another successful Golf Tournament. It was a great event and a fun way to spend time together outside of our regular meetings.
Serving as chapter president this year has truly been an honor. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together — from bringing back The Squirrel Cage, to growing meeting attendance, to creating events that strengthened our chapter community.
We still have two more monthly meetings ahead of us before we break for the summer, and I hope to see everyone there as we finish out the year strong.
As we head into the next chapter, I’m excited to pass the torch to Alex Mathis, who I know will continue building on the momentum this chapter has created. The newsletter will return in the fall, and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone again then.
Thank you again for a memorable year.
YAAAYYYY!
Ruby Vargas
’25–’26 Alamo ASHRAE President
Upcoming 2026 Events
Thanks to everyone that joined us in March! Hope to see y'all at the Golf Tournament!
