Greetings!
I am pleased to serve the chapter's growing ambitions to provide value for local operations professionals. The leadership team is committed to our member's experience and improving upon things where we can. As volunteers, the real enjoyment comes by starting something great that someone else can benefit from and then strengthening the experience of our events, courses or social networking products. This is a new year, so please show your support by introducing yourself and getting involved as an APICS member. See you soon!
Josh Crandall, CPIM, CSCP - President PAN APICS

Did you know?
If you are an unemployed APICS member whose membership is coming up for renewal and you are actively seeking work within the production and inventory management field, you may apply for an extension of membership benefits through the Unemployed Membership Extension Program.
This program enables members seeking employment within the production and inventory management industry to extend their membership for six months free of charge*. If you meet this criterion and are interested in applying for an extension of membership benefits due to unemployment, download an application or contact APICS Customer Support.
Go to http://www.apics.org/Membership/Join/unemployed.htm and click on the "Benefit Extension Application for Unemployed Members" link at the bottom of the page to download the application.
*Note: Members may apply for this extension up to three times for coverage over an 18 month period. Members apply for the extension through their local chapter, which must approve the request and waive chapter dues. Members approved for this waiver will receive electronic membership for the duration of the waiver, which entitles you to electronic communication of all member benefit materials.
