    CTF Charity Golf Tournaments July, 2012 and April 29, 2013

    El Macero Country Club  in Davis hosted  the annual CTF Charity Golf  Tournament  this  past  July.    The  California transportation community came out to support CTF and had a great time.   Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty and two former Caltrans Directors played or volunteered as did public and private sector transportation executives from around the state.  

    Join us April 29, 2013 in Irvine for our first So. Cal. Charity Golf Tournament.

  • Transportation Education Symposium Nov. 1-2 in LA County The Transportation Education Symposium brings together 36 of the best and brightest university students with top notch profes‐sionals for two days of mentor‐ing, role playing, learning and having a great time.  Don’t miss this opportunity to share what you know with the next genera‐tion of transportation leaders.   “Great one‐on‐one event. What a treat to interact with upcom‐ing stars in our industry.” Jimmy Sims, Principal, Mark              Thomas & Company  

    “A terrific  opportunity to men‐tor some of our best and bright‐est transportation students.  These young people are our fu‐ture leaders.” Will Kempton, CEO, Orange  County Transportation         Authority  “This wonderful event allowed me to make a connection with future generations and re‐charge my own excitement.” Christine Cox‐Kovacevich,          Division Chief, Caltrans Central Region 

    “One of the best events I have attended in college.” Jake Roths, Santa Clara             University  “Good ‘real world’ education for the students and a great ‘recharging’ experience for the professionals.” Rick Richmond, CEO, Alameda Corridor‐East Construction       Authority  “The Symposium is life chang‐ing. It provided me with skills I wouldn’t find anywhere else.”  Thomas Wong, UC Berkeley 

    2011 CTF Education Symposium Winning RFP Team One of the best parts of the Symposium  is the RFP exercise. Teams of students, assisted by few profes‐sionals, develop and make presentations to a mock Consultant Selection Committee. (Professionals have a blast playing those roles!) The Committee ranks the teams and awards the winning Team the Project Study Report Project.  Students learn about the process and gain valuable assets while  and professionals enjoy sharing with the next generation.  One student on this team, Sam Levy of USC (red shirt) went on to win the $5,000 CTF Education Symposium Scholarship.
