Please join me in welcoming Mr. Gilbert Bautista with Infrastructure Factor Consulting in El Segundo as a Full member and Mr. Armand Estrada with Alfa Tech in San Jose as a Full member. Welcome Gilbert & Armand! Hope to see you at the next meeting.

Come on people, wake up and get with the program. ASPE needs everybody’s help in recruiting new members. I can’t do it all by myself!

Just so you all know, I do not list new members until I receive the official email notice from national. So, if you’ve recently joined our chapter and are wondering why you have not been recognized yet, that is the reason.

We’ve lost some members over the last year or so mainly due to the very difficult economic times we are currently experiencing. We need everyone’s help in trying to get back those old members as well as trying to bring in new members. I thank you all for you help on this matter.

Remember, all you need to do is bring in a new member with a current application and payment to a monthly dinner meeting, and you both get dinner for FREE! That’s right, it’s that simple! Sponsor a new member and ASPE will buy your dinner. Anyone who may need a current membership application, just send me your request via email and I will email the application back to you.

I hope to see you all at the February meeting back @ Steven’s. Be there or be square.
