Greetings to TSMA members, associates, and friends!
 
I hope you're enjoying a fantastic Minnesota summer!
 
I'm thrilled to share some exciting news—our 32nd Annual TSMA Golf Social is officially SOLD OUT! A big thank you to all our sponsors, the planning committee, and everyone who registered. We’re looking forward to a great day on the course at Geneva Golf Club in Alexandria on July 16!
 
Our Manufacturing Career Dream Team has been busy over the past several months. Be sure to read the update from our Dream Team Coordinator, Therese Serum, for all the latest.
 
Looking ahead, October is Manufacturing Month in Minnesota—a perfect time to celebrate, host tours, and promote manufacturing careers in your community. We encourage you to participate and share your stories!
 
We’re also excited to welcome two new members to TSMA: Otter Tail County and Mavo Systems. Get to know them in the New Member section of this newsletter.
 
Don’t miss our Board Member Spotlight featuring Sara Strunk, CFO at DyCast Specialties in Starbuck. Learn more about her leadership and commitment to the industry.
 
The MMA has a great lineup of educational offerings coming this fall. These events are free to members, so please take advantage—send your team, expand your knowledge, and get involved! (See the Events section for full details.)
 
TSMA is always on the lookout for meeting speakers, plant tour hosts, and event sponsors. If you have suggestions or contacts, please reach out to Carolyn—we’d love your input.
 
Finally, I want to encourage you to register and participate in upcoming events. TSMA is here to support your success—but your engagement is what keeps our momentum strong.
 
See you at the Golf Social on July 16!
 
Warm regards, 
Phil Johnson
