President's Message

As I continue the succession of those honored to lead one of the Society’s chapters, I find myself in a unique position. I am following the 75th Anniversary of the Philadelphia Chapter’s founding; celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the National founding; and the beginning of the next leg in our Chapter’s advancement. Each individually is an honor.

Each segment of our growth has, in its own way, had to meet the challenges of moving forward, and in 2011 things are no different.

I want to first thank our immediate Past President, Jim Corrado, for the work he did to keep us going, as well as all those who worked with him in front of and behind the scenes. What you did is evident in us reaching this point.

Moving forward, I would like to challenge everyone to become more involved in further energizing our chapter and expanding what we do. We can only be as successful as you make it.

I am always open to suggestions, which goes hand-in-hand with wanting individuals to become active in making ideas work. Please consider becoming more involved in what we do. Contact me at akeiss@med-texservices.com to express your interest in electing to take a step forward with us.

Alfred W. Keiss
President, Philadelphia Chapter, ASSE
