The chapter just finished holding our winter social, the 7th Annual Winter Party, at the Hotel Monaco in Alexandria, VA. Thank you to all of the companies who sponsored tables at this festive event. I’m also happy to announce some of our many upcoming 2013 events. Approaching quickly, January 26th -30th, is the ASHRAE Societies’ Annual Winter Conference and joint AHRI Expo in Dallas, Texas. I encourage you to make your final reservations if you plan to attend the conference. The conference will include technical programs and seminars, as well as many ASHRAE Society committee meetings. The Region III dinner will be on Sunday, January 27th. Please contact Gary Debes, the Region III RVC–Membership Promotions for more information. I invite you to attend our next educational chapter meeting on Wednesday, February 13th. This joint IBPSA meeting will include our PES on hi-efficiency data centers and our dinner meeting will be on energy modeling. As usual, we will be at the Hilton Arlington, near the Ballston metro 3 station. Thank you to all of our members who register on-line and ahead of time for our PES and dinner meetings to help our registration process go more smoothly. Please save the date, Saturday, February 16th, 2013 for the annual Discover Engineering Family Day, at the National Building Museum in Washington, DC. This great community outreach event inspires students to study engineering and includes lots of hands-on activities. Patti and Luis will be hosting our ASHRAE-NCC tables this year and we will be looking for many volunteers, (engineers and non-engineers welcome). I’m happy to have been part of our chapter’s first ever ASHRAE-NCC booth in 2003 and to have helped to continue this 10-year tradition. http://www.engineeringfamilyday .org/. Finally, our chapter will also be hosting a social event involving both our current and future Young-Engineers-in-ASHRAE (YEA) in late February, so stay tuned for more information. I would like to wish you a happy and prosperous new year in 2013!
