PASS News

As Wendy shared in her February blog post, the management team at PASS HQ (C&C) undertakes a rigorous financial audit every year with audit firm FGMK. This process started in June and ended in October of 2019.

The completed FY2019 Audited Financial Statements are now available for viewing.

Every year at PASS Summit, a PASS member is awarded for their outstanding service and commitment to the organization, helping others to connect, share, and learn within the community. This year, we’re pleased to share that the 2019 PASSion Award winner is Hamish Watson.

Hamish first joined PASS as a SQLSaturday attendee and began volunteering at that event the following year. As a SQLSaturday organizer he didn’t view other events as competition, but as partners, and as a Local Group leader he has mentored others to find success in their own groups.

The Habanero Booth Awards, which take place annually during PASS Summit, are designed to inspire creativity and engagement. Thank you to our sponsors and exhibitors for connecting with the community through your innovative displays in the Exhibit Hall!
