MAY NEWSLETTER

By Robert Arthur, P.Eng, M.Sc
Chair - APEGGA Medicine Hat Branch Executive

Dear Colleagues:

I thought it might be useful and informative to try to put out a short newsletter to keep you informed of

1. Why we do what we do,
   
2. What is going on and upcoming in the branch and
   
3. To recognize the significant contributions of local members contributing to our Branch.

In keeping with the first objective I have included on the download copy of this newsletter APEGGA's mission and vision and a brief statement of our branch's terms of reference. I have also included a copy of our current branch executive list which you can also pull off the APEGGA web site.

The association is working very hard these days to communicate with its members. With over 42,000 members across the province it is a challenge to keep everyone informed and to keep discussions going and on point as APEGGA works to resolve issues of the day. The APEGGA Website is an excellent site in this regard and I encourage you to have a look at it. It will certainly help you become very well informed as to what the association is doing to fulfill its mission and vision. One of the more topical issues has been the whole notion of inclusivity. I encourage you to do a search on the site using inclusivity as a key word. You will find yourself well informed on the issue and equipped with a means to 'put in your oar'.
