The Engineer’s Club of Kansas City’s mission is to “perpetuate the engineering profession by inspiring and assisting the next generation.” We’ve done exactly that for over 100 years as evidenced by providing more than $1 million in scholarships to local university students pursuing engineering-related degrees.


However, we are just the conduit. It is the generosity of so many KC-area engineering, construction, and service provider firms that step up each year to donate, sponsor, participate, and volunteer in our various fundraiser events.


The support that YOU provide allows US to support the next generation of engineers. From the Board, we sincerely thank you for your generosity and look forward to your participation in our three big fundraising events in 2024/25: Shrimp Bingo (February 7, 2025), and our Spring Golf outing (May 15, 2025).


As with most industry associations, we are a 100% volunteer-run group. We are always looking for the next generation of volunteers and leaders. Please reach out to any of the officers or Board members to learn more about our various committees and volunteer roles. I can tell you from personal experience, it is very rewarding. I consider being entrusted to serve this year as President of the Engineer’s Club to be one of the highlights of my career.


To make sure you stay up to date, please share your email below to subscribe to announcements about upcoming events. An annual membership of just $50 allows you early access to register for the coveted Shrimp Bingo tickets and Spring Golf, both regularly sold.


I want to thank and recognize the 2024/25 leadership team serving with me this year. Our Officers are: Julie Jenson (Vice President), Tom Degenhardt (Treasurer), and Sydney O'Brien (Secretary), who are supported by Board members: Cheryl Kelley, Chester Bender, Tony O’Malley, Phil Jennings, and John Warren.


We look forward to seeing you at our monthly luncheon series that feature timely and noteworthy speakers and topics.


The Engineer’s Club, and especially our scholarship recipients, THANK YOU for your past and continued generosity and support!


Regards,


Miranda Hamrick, PE

Quinton created and chairs the City’s Special Committee on Housing Policy. Born and raised in Kansas City, Quinton has spent most of his life in the city’s urban core. As a child, he moved often and experienced homelessness, sometimes staying with family or friends, or residing in a motel. Despite these challenges, Quinton remained focused on his schoolwork, earning academic scholarships to high school, college and Cornell Law School before returning home to Kansas City. Since 2012, Quinton has been a member of the University of Kansas Law School faculty, where he served as one of the youngest tenure-track law professors in the country.
