National PCC Week 2024

On September 26, 2024 with a close to 100 of San Antonio and Austin PCC members in attendance National PCC Day is one of our largest events that the Postal Customer Council holds each year. NPCC Day is a place where you can network directly with your local leadership and go straight to the source, along with networking with some of the largest printing companies in town. It is the time and the place where we can educate our members on the newest and latest programs that are launching with the United States Postal Service such as Connect Local. 

As 2024 draws to a close, San Antonio and Austin resumed face-to-face gatherings in the new year. Planning National Postal Customer Council events can be a challenging job; it requires endless creativity to bring professional events alive and to spice up the experience each year for your guests. Not to mention, we are often faced with time pressure, budget, and uncertainties.

During the brainstorming session, San Antonio and the Austin PCC team came up with the idea of reaching out to local companies in Austin & San Antonio to help sponsor the event and help to reduce cost on both PCC’s. Local companies donated gifts for the members and Industry members also helped by sponsoring breakfast & lunch. This year we had a new venue and a different taste for lunch. Our members could enjoy a variety of pasta, shrimp scampi, salads, & breadsticks. Olive Garden catering did not let us down. 

The Executive Board for San Antonio and Austin PCC went full throttle with the planning of National PCC Day. Each week we held Zoom meetings and serval face-to-face meeting in preparation for the big day. Each member contributed their time, knowledge, and superb ideas to make it all come together. 

The location for National PCC Day was at the Hidden Gem resort of Gruene, the halfway point between San Antonio and Austin. The city Gruene is a German town in Comal County in the State of Texas. Originally settled by German farmers in the 1840s, Gruene is now known for food, wine, shopping, seasonal events, and the oldest continuously operating dance hall in the State of Texas. 

The Hidden Gem of Gruene is the perfect destination wedding venue located in New Braunfels, Texas Nestled on 21 acres of picturesque grounds and situated only a few steps from the Guadalupe River, this venue provides plenty of unforgettable photo opportunities. Networking was in full swing, while our members were able to develop some professional and social contacts.  Thankyou to our sponsors for your dedication to a successful National PCC day 2024.
