In alignment with the “Green Trends” of ASHRAE we have eliminated the paper copies of
the Membership Roster. An electronic copy will be available at meetings, upon request.
President’s Pen
Spring has sprung!! And our April Meeting is just about upon
us. For us ASHRAE Meeting participants, April in Baltimore
means Past President’s Night and crab cakes!! What’s not to
like?
Many thanks to Craig Parks for organizing our programs
throughout this year. It is not an easy task arranging
presentations for you - our Membership, but Craig has risen to
the occasion. In March we had a highly informative Tech
Session presented by Mark Shaffer on the “Design and
Application of Compressed Air Systems”. Our Main Meeting
topic was presented by Dr. Rudolf Zaengerle on “High
Performance Run-Around Energy Recovery Systems”. I hope
you were able to take advantage of these excellent
presentations.
Speaking of opportunities, there is a whole lot of ASHRAE
going on this month. On April 1st we will hold our Student
Challenge. Sam Phillip and Rob Broczkowski are organizing
this event and could use all the help they can get. Please
reach out to Sam and/or Rob at studentchaps@ashrae-
balto.org or [email protected] and offer your
assistance. Your help is needed and appreciated.
Our April 6th Chapter Meeting will feature a Main Meeting on
“Applying Total Energy Recovery in Labs”. Our Tech Session
is on VFDs. Many thanks to Gus K and the rest of the
professionals at Advanced Thermal Solutions for sponsoring
our Networking Hour this month.
Our 6th Annual fishing tournament will be held on Monday April
17th - opening day for rockfish in the Chesapeake. The latest
word was that 10 of 12 boats have been filled. This event
continues to grow each year.
On April 20th ASHRAE is presenting a webinar on “Take
Control: Using Analytics to Drive Building Performance”.
Cummins-Wagner will host this event locally for any of our
membership interested in this webinar. Please let Brad
Watkins of Cummins-Wagner know if you would like to attend.
Brad can be reached at [email protected].
The ballot for the Baltimore Chapter of ASHRAE Board of
Governors for the 2017-2018 year is included in this
Thermogram. All Chapter Members are encouraged to
complete this ballot and return it to me. I do not need to say:
“make the Baltimore Chapter of ASHRAE great again”. Our
chapter is in great shape. We have many young, talented and
dedicated people on our Board and Chairing our
Committees. As any great organization though, we could
still use your involvement. Our chapter is in need of
volunteers for the 2017-18 year. Please contact Craig
Parks or any Board Member and express your interest in
supporting your Chapter.
