ASCE & BCA Joint Lunch and Learn Thursday, January 24, 2013 2:53 PM
Good Afternoon All,
It has been a few long months since we had a branch meeting; however, I have been using our hiatus to formulate a new meeting format that should benefit our local membership here in Northeast Indiana. As an introduction and a taste of what is to come, our branch and the Building Contractors Association (BCA) will be sponsoring a lunch and learn in the next couple of weeks. Since we are a co-sponsor of the meeting, the seminar will qualify for 1.5 PDH’s toward the renewal of professional licensure for all civil engineers and civil related engineers.
Please find attached the flier/registration sheet to sign-up for this lunch and learn. Even non-BCA ASCE members are welcome to attend for the same reduced rate as BCA members. PDH certificates will be distributed as a .PDF document via email within 1-week after the seminar. A sign-in sheet will be required to be signed in order to receive the PDH certificate.
I welcome you all to attend, and look forward to seeing you there.
Regards,
Brad

Good Afternoon All,
Please see the attached flier for April’s meeting announcement. There are not too many days left in April, so obviously this is short notice. I apologize.
Also attached is a spreadsheet file with an anticipated program schedule for each month and a questionnaire to be completed and sent back to me. This will help us in planning the future meetings. The calendar is tab 1, and the survey is tab 2. I look forward to seeing the results.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Respectfully,
Brad

Wednesday, January 11, 2012 Meeting Postponement Tuesday, January 10, 2012 4:07 PM
Good Afternoon All,
Due to some extenuating circumstances, the meeting that was going to be for tomorrow [Wednesday January 11, 2012] will be postponed 1 week. Please do not fret, there was no meeting notice sent out for this meeting. We will schedule the meeting for next week, January 18th at noon. There is no speaker lined up, so I figured we would have a strategic planning meeting as well as discuss anything anyone wants to talk about. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I appreciate your patience, and look forward to seeing you all. The location will be announced near the end of this week.
Thanks,
Brad

- Review score card for RFQ
- Explain how “green” influences scores
- Explain how firm was selected
- Discuss City’s green standards
- Discuss City’s green policies
