The annual Region 7 picnic was great according to my wife and six-year old son.  I
have to agree. A BIG THANK YOU TO DAVID COUREY OF POOL SURFACING 2000, OUR ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE, SPONSERS AND THE MEMBERS OF OTHER CHAPTERS, ALL OF WHOM CONTRIBUTED TO MAKE THE PICNIC A SUCCESS.  I LOOK FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR

Please plan on attending the general meeting on September 20th. John and Jon will be speaking on time management. They will also comment on the Board of Region Director's meeting held on August 26th. One of the topics will be the changes in licensing requirements approved by the BORD (see the September issue of the Ippsan).

A benefit of time management is the ability to take a vacation. I will be on vacation from September 14th to the 26th. This is the first of four weeks that I will take before the end of the year. I only say this to remind some of you that it is OK to take time off. You deserve it.
