Saturday Night Event
Most of us don’t spend time thinking about the future of our profession. Fortunately, RWIEF does. As a non-profit foundation, we support IRWA in funding education programing.
At each annual conference, the Monday Night Event is our primary fundraiser. This event provides the opportunity to network in a fun, family-friendly atmosphere. Food, live music and auctions are held in venues reflecting the flavor and tradition of the host city. Profits from the event are used for education programs spanning technical knowledge to interpersonal relations to leadership training and more.
So, where does Foundation funding come from? YOU! IRWA members, along with leading industry corporations generously donate money along with their time, energy and passion to raise funds. Thank you for helping RWIEF raise the level of expertise in our industry!
Monday Night Event 2025
Golf Tournament 2025
Golf Tournament
The annual golf tournament is hosted by the RWIEF and held on Tuesday of conference week. This event provides 144 conference attendees and golf enthusiasts a fun day outdoors for networking and raising education funds. Rain or shine, hot or cold, this event always sells out and golfers of all skill levels enjoy their rounds, along with a long drive contest and closest to the pin contest. After play ends, everyone gathers for lunch, awards and a raffle of the latest golf equipment. Leading ROW industry corporations, IRWA Chapters, Regions and individual members provide sponsorships. Profits generated from the event are used to further right of way education programing.
2026 FUNdraiser
This year’s ride was from Omaha, NE to Calgary, AB, which is the site of the 2027 IRWA conference. For a chance at the $1000 prize, go to www.libertycore.com/rwief-fundraiser and click on the motorcycle. If you attend the Omaha conference, you can make your guess(s) at the RWIEF booth at the tradeshow. You do not, however, need to attend the conference to participate. The names of those who choose the correct milage will be put in a hat and the winner will be drawn at RWIEF’s Saturday Night Event at the Omaha conference.
The Foundation thanks Steve for his never-ending energy (and saddle sores) along with his contest sponsor, Liberty Core Consultants!
