Chapter Board Listing

At the last District meeting we had a request to display all the Chapter Board Members for all chapters. The reason being is so that we would increase communication between chapters officers. This will also allow (as an example) for a treasurer of one chapter (or any of the board members) to communicate with another officer on another chapter board. The list is attached for your use.

We need your input. Send info to anthony.stencel@sbcglobal.net

Would you like to share your knowledge in the APICS Learning Communities.

 

District Speaker List

Many of you have requested that we start a District Speaker List. We hope that the info on the attachment helps you. When using the list if you find that speakers you have used are not on the list please share them with us. Simply email your listing to me and I will add your speakers to the list for others to  use. Hope this is just the start of a fantastic resource. Thanks for your help. Tony Stencel
