SUMMARY - FY2012 ANNUAL
MEETING and Member Forum


The FY2012 SCIP Annual Meeting and Member Forum was held on
Tuesday, September 13, 2011
in Chicago, IL at
McCormick Place

60 members attended the 8:30 am Breakfast and Business meeting in the morning the SCIP Forum which followed at the conclusion of the board meeting. The annual Forums ended around 3:30 pm.

Events included a breakfast sponsored by Draper prior to the board meeting and a luncheon sponsored by PPG.

This year Arkema's early evening special social event was attendance at the White Sox-Detroit Tigers baseball game at US Cellular Field - Comiskey Park. The members who attended were treated to two luxury skyboxes and all the food and luscious deserts they could eat. Everyone seemed to enjoy socializing as much as watching the game.

The SCIP Booth was well located near the CSI Booth and it was well staffed at all times. What is SCIP campaign buttons were seen everywhere on the convention floor.

More news and minutes of the Board meeting will be posted when adopted by the Board. Check back soon for more photos of the events.

Membership Renewal Information

Personalized Membership Renewal Forms are sent to each member by email from the Treasurer/Membership Chair, and are not available online. One reason for this process is to verify that the member has a current working email address for use in sending announcements and ballots. Please update your profile and keep the membership chair notified of any email address change.

If a member/affiliate has not received a renewal form by May 31 of the current year for the following year's membership term, contact treasurer at scip.com.
