President's Message
Dear Members,
I hope this message finds everyone well. Unfortunately, it seems like Punxsutawney Phil’s prediction was incorrect about an early spring. I am tired of the cold, snow and sleet and ready for the sunshine and outdoors.
Our schedule has changed slightly for the April meeting. We will now have a joint social with the NC A&T student members on April 23rd in Price Hall(on campus) Room 114. The regular chapter meeting will start at 5:30 and then the social will begin at 6pm. Pizza and refreshments will be served. Chapter members will still need to pay but students will be free for this meeting. I think this will be a great opportunity for us to socialize and give the student members some real world experience and advice as they prepare to graduate and peruse their careers. April is also a very important meeting as we will be voting on our new chapter officers. We will also be presenting our Chapter Safety Professional of the Year award. I would like to see a great turnout for this meeting so we can show support for our Student Chapter and for the incoming officers.
In May, we will not have a Technical Meeting because of the 83rd Annual NC Statewide Safety Conference on May 14-16, 2013 at the Koury Convention Center in Greensboro. This is a great free training opportunity! The Tarheel Chapter will be hosting the ASSE luncheon at the Conference this year on May 15th. Kathy Seabrook, the incoming ASSE President will be speaking. Cost to attend is $25 and tickets are required. Tickets can be purchased by PayPal, through Holly Johnson or at the ASSE booth before the event. Please see the Tarheel Chapter website for more information, http://tarheel.asse.org/.
Don’t forget to mark your calendars for our June 18th Technical Meeting. We are working on a speaker to talk on the topic of GHS, The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals.
Hope everyone has a safe day!
Holly Johnson, President
