SUMMARY:2026 Multi-Region Leadership Conference
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 Multi-Region Leadership Conference (MRLC) will be hosted in Chicago\, Illinois. The ASCE Illinois Section Younger Member Group will be hosting the Central Region Younger Member Conference (CRYMC) in partnership with ASCE\, and the Illinois Section of ASCE. \n  \nThere will be about 200 civil engineers and civil engineering students attending the event. ASCE Regions 3\,6\, and 7 (spanning the central U.S.\, Canada\, and Mexico) will be represented. \n  \nWe are looking for sponsorships! Supporting the CRYMC is an opportunity to showcase your firm’s commitment to the profession while gaining direct access to future and current industry leaders. Sponsorship packages range from $100 to $10\,000. \n  \nInformation on sponsorships\, click here. \n  \nLocation: Marriott Chicago O’Hare (8535 W Higgins Rd\, Chicago\, IL 60631) \n  \n  \nCRYMC Events \nThursday\, January 29th \nCRYMC Thursday Technical Tour: Google Renovations of the James R Thompson Center \n  \nClark Construction will provide a tour of their progress at the James R Thompson Center\, a building in the process of being redeveloped into the Google Center. The building\, for many years owned by the State of Illinois and used for governmental offices\, will become the Google Center and a signature space for Google’s Chicago area presence. The building is a stellar example of post-modern architecture\, including the curved glass ceiling whose feature will be preserved upon completion of the renovations. The late and great architect of the building\, Helmut Jahn\, left his mark on many city buildings\, as well as other world-renowned buildings. Taking up a whole city block\, one cannot miss this grand structure\, especially while at work to bring it into the 21st century. \n  \nTime: 4p-6p (subject to change) \n  \nLocation: Blue Line Cumberland Station to Clark/Lake Station. Additional details to follow. \n_______________________________________________________________________________ \n  \nThursday\, January 29th \nCRYMC Thursday Pre-Conference Networking Night: Punch Bowl Social \n  \nCRYMC attendees are invited to join us at the following ticketed event to kick off a great start to the conference! Punch Bowl Social\, originally founded in Denver and since expanded to many cities\, hosts a wonderful ambiance complete with excellent drinks and food\, games to throwback to your college days and your youthful days such as bowling\, karaoke\, and darts! Our Chicago location is centered in the quickly changing Fulton Market\, where one is bound to see a new building in the works nearby. The large venue will provide optimal time to reconnect with those you know well\, and network with fellow attendees you’ve just met. We look forward to seeing you there! \n  \nTime: 7-10pm \n  \n_______________________________________________________________________________ \n  \nFriday\, January 30th \nCRYMC Friday Night Awards Banquet (Open to Conference Attendees Only) \n  \nOur Awards Banquet is inspired by the famous 1893 Chicago World’s Fair\, more commonly referred to as the World’s Columbian Exposition. Carnival games of many kinds will follow our Awards ceremony and dinner\, and at your seats you will find historical postcards featuring many noteworthy buildings\, spectacles\, and scenes from the event! Historical information will be present to learn more about the local response and perspectives\, as well as little known facts. Horticultural artifacts\, a notable highlight from the Exposition\, can be found at each table\, as well as the much renowned Devil in the White City nonfiction novel\, a detailed telling of the fair preparation and lead up! Celebrate with your peers as we commend those who have worked all year to promote the causes of our Younger Member Groups and Sections and the broader goals and aims of the American Society of Civil Engineers. \n  \nTime: 6-10pm \n  \n_______________________________________________________________________________ \nSaturday\, January 31st \nCRYMC Saturday Dinner Outing \n  \nJoin us for a group dinner outing at a TBD restaurant!
