Chairman’s Message

In our midst we are very fortunate to have a vast array of talented people; people who are renowned in the welding field throughout the USA and other parts of the world. Let each of us use this 2011/2012 season to create a better Section so that all can benefit.

Talk up the Section to non-members and point out the advantages we offer with meeting attendance. If you haven’t been to a meeting lately, start coming out. If you are a committee chairman, recruit some assistants to take over your job in the future. If you are not currently involved with a committee, join one. If you have an idea for a pro-gram or activity, come share it.

We all must spark interest and motivate members and non-members alike to become more involved in Section activities.
