PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

|
Fellow ASSP WPA Chapter Members,
Happy Fall! (the season not the consequence of a hazard)
Your Executive Committee is hard at planning monthly events for you the members.
The November tour is scheduled for Wednesday, November 16 at the University of Pittsburgh Additives Manufacturing Lab. The December Holiday Networking Lunch is at the Hofbräuhaus in Pittsburgh on Friday, December 16, and the January Technical Tour is at Giffin Interior & Fixture, Inc. in Bridgeville on Thursday, January 12, 2023. Registration is open for these events on the chapter website.
The Western PA Professional Development Conference (PDC) is scheduled for April 27, 2023, at the Loft Conference Center adjacent to the AC Marriott Pittsburgh Southpointe, Canonsburg PA. Please "Save the Date" and plan to attend. The Planning Committee will be requesting Proposals for Speakers and will be in need of sponsors. Please keep a look out in your email for these notices.
If you have ideas for tours or meetings, recommendations for tours or speakers, or ideas for tours or meetings contact any one of the Executive Committee members listed on the website. We continue to plan the monthly events and are trying to schedule more tours than meetings. We are trying to get more involved with and provide more support to the Student Sections of IUP, SRU, and Thiel College.
Please review the list of sponsors at the bottom of the Newsletter. Safety Performance, Eaton Corp., Range Resources, & BCSP are sponsors of the 2022 PDC. RJR Safety Inc is a Chapter sponsor.
