Tempus Fugit …
The 2011 – 2012 member year draws to a close. As Chair, I would like to give you all a great big thank you! With your participation and help, it was a good year. We tried a couple of new things at our meetings (some were a learning experience) and will continue to work to improve the value provided by Section 1001 ASQ Grand Rapids to our members. We are lining up next years program and it looks exciting. As always, we can use additional help both ad hoc, and on the Section Leadership Committee (SLC ). If any of you are interested, please let anyone on the SLC know.
Thanks to Rick Evans for last months presentation and tutorial.
