CHAIRMAN'S CHAT

Hello,
These are unprecedented times. The Covid 19 outbreak has effected almost all aspects of our business and lives.
The plant tour of Urschel Labs scheduled for May 11 was cancelled. We are planning to reschedule the tour of this facility sometime in 2020-2021.
Western Michigan University will be hosting a week long Metal Casting Short Course for High School Students at the Kalamazoo, MI WMU Campus. This course was scheduled for June 22 -26, but has been delayed due to Covid 19 regulations in Michigan. Dr. Sam is enthusiastic about the course, and waiting for the regulations to be officially lifted in Michigan. If you know high school students who have an interest in math, science and engineering, get them into this course and help spark an interest in metal casting education. The industry needs new metal casting professionals. The Northern Indiana AFS Chapter will sponsor two students for this course.
The Northern IN AFS Chapter Golf Outing is on schedule for Sat., July 18 at Eagle Glen Golf Club in Columbia City, Indiana. This is our big scholarship fundraiser for the year! Please support this fun event!
Thanks for supporting the Northern Indiana AFS Chapter during the 2019-2020 year!
Stay positive, healthy and safe during this time of international crisis!
