Thank you for your interest in the Twin Cities Metro Area Chapter of the IFPS. Chapter 5 meets once per month from September through June. The purpose of our meetings is to review and share industry-related topics. We generally alternate our meetings with plant tours of local companies that utilize or manufacture hydraulic components with product presentations and/or new technology presentations pertinent to the industry. We also host an annual golf outing or dinner cruise in May. Attendance at our meetings allows certified members to accumulate points required for recertification.

If you are interested in joining our chapter or interested in presenting a topic or have a suggestion for a tour during our monthly meeting, please e-mail: Alexander Duran, CFPS, Chapter President.
