As 2019 comes to a close, EAP would like to wish all of our members a safe and happy holiday season and a prosperous New Year!
The EAP staff is preparing for a busy 2020, offering 18 education classes, eight Industry networking events, and our Spring and Fall
Residential Heating & Air Conditioning Rebate Programs. In addition, we will continue to bridge the labor gap by expanding our Electrical Training Program around five-county Philadelphia.
See you in 2020!

The 2019 Economic Symposium and Holiday Party, held at the Blue Bell Inn, offered members a high-level economic update by Dr. Joel Naroff, and allowed members to kick back and enjoy a festive evening. EAPs Educational Foundation ran a 50/50 raffle, offering the winner half of the $900 raised that evening. A special thanks goes to Drake Heller who won the 50/50 and donated his winnings right back to the Foundation.
On behalf of the Foundation Board of Directors, thanks to our members who have and continue to support the Foundation. Time is still left this year to make a tax deductible contribution
