PHOENIX Area Used Equipment / Semiconductor Networking Event

Our last event was held on November 3, 2011 at Lucille's Bar-B-Que in the Tempe Marketplace. Once again, we had a good turnout and interest in continuing the networking get-togethers. The attendees were also in favor of continuing to use Lucille's Bar-B-Que as the meeting location.

The next event is scheduled for after the First of the Year back at Lucille's Bar-B-Que. Everything is as usual: time 5-7 PM, no agenda, pay-as-you-go, and everyone welcome.

The initial networking event was held on November 12, 2009 at Manuel's Restaurant in Tempe.  The general consensus was that the opportunities are value added and we should continue scheduling future events every two to three months.

Semiconductor individuals associated with the global market for secondhand equipment comprise the majority of attendees but the events are open and anyone interested is invited to attend. 

If you have any suggestions or would like to have someone added to the contact list, please contact Gary Alexander at email@amcintl.com.

Military Appreciation Day

Wish for Our Heroes sponsored a Military Appreciation Day on Sunday, March 13, 2011. The event was hosted by Toby Keith's "I Love This Bar & Grill" at their location in the Riverview Mall  in Mesa, Arizona. 

Food, beverages, continuous entertainment, military displays, demonstrations and tribute to America and Her Heroes highlighted the day's activities. Entertainment included the ASU Swing Devils, Gypsy Wind Band, and the Uptown Angels.

Booths hosted by military related support and charitable organizations  provided information on the Active Duty Military, Arizona National Guard and Arizona Reserves and families; as well as various Veterans' programs.

Military Appreciation Day was free and open to all military personnel and their families as well as the general public. As part of the event, Wish For Our Heroes held an auction and raffle which will include autographed memorabilia as well as items donated from local merchants.
