Thanks to all of you that attended our April meeting.  For those of you that could not attend, I am proud to announce our officers for the 2008-09 year, as elected unanimously by those in attendance last month:

I hope you see this list as familiar folks who are dedicated to serving this chapter, BUT we still need help!  With our officer positions filled, we are still looking for volunteers to help with a variety of tasks, such as assisting with check-in at our monthly meetings, identifying potential speakers, monitoring RSVPs and providing headcount to the Petroleum Club to name a few.  Most of these tasks take up a merely an hour or 2 each month; however, these items add up without your help.  My call to action this month is for 10 new volunteers – an hour or 2 of your time a month – to take on some of these activities.  Our goal is to have 2-3 people assist each officer (and some of our committees) to share these items to better serve our membership.  No volunteer is mandated to never miss a meeting or ask for a fill-in ~ we all have day jobs ~ and small amount of your time goes a long way to better communicating to our members and putting together better programs and events.  Please contact me directly (terry.hartzog@protiviti.com), or any of our officers to let us know that you’d like to help.

REGISTER NOW for our year-end networking event at the Ballpark in Arlington.  (See additional information in body of newsletter.)

As advertised in April, we will have our normal May meeting on first Tuesday (5/6), but there will also be a year-end joint meeting with the Dallas IIA chapter at the Ballpark in Arlington on Wednesday, May 14.  The event features Don Ulsch from Jefferson Wells speaking on ‘Economic Espionage’, followed by the Rangers game versus the Seattle Mariners.  Registration will start at 9:30a, Don’s presentation will be from 10-Noon (2 CPE hours available), fajita lunch from Noon-1 and the first pitch is at 1:05p.  I really hope that you take advantage of this phenomenal opportunity for networking and an afternoon of fun – all for $45.  Many thanks to financial contributions from Jefferson Wells and both IIA chapters to make this event so affordable.  You must register online with the Dallas chapter at http://dallasiia.org and register soon as we are limited to the first 275 people for both chapters combined.

Please find our newsletter attached with information about our upcoming program.  I hope to see you on May 6 for our final monthly program of the year.  We have 2 GREAT speakers to close out the year. 

Thanks,

Terry Hartzog
