Congratulations on their elections. They will take office effective July 1st.

Join us for our next meeting on April 21st when we will tour the newly renovated Center-In-The-Square in downtown Roanoke. Contact John Shields at jcsii@verizon.net to reserve a spot. We’ll start at 5:30 PM. Stick around and we’ll catch dinner afterwards. Our May meeting will be a joint meeting with AIA and other industry associations and will be held at the Vinton War Memorial.

Have you thought of becoming certified as a Construction Document Technologist (CDT)? The Blue Ridge Chapter will conduct summer learning sessions if there is interest. Sessions will run from July thru just before the exam in September. The only cost for the training would be the CSI CDT text of $90.75 which is at Chapter cost plus the cost of the exam. If you plan to take the CDT exam in September 2013 and would like to join our study group, please let Glen Reimer know you would like to participate by sending him an email at ghreimer@msn.com.

Our Chapter currently has a vacant Director position available on our Board of Directors. If you’re a Chapter Member and would like to serve as a Director on our board, please give Kyle Dobbins a call at 540.857.3225 or email at Kyle.Dobbins@aecom.com.

Please visit our chapter website or Facebook page to learn about upcoming programs and events.

Thanks,

Kyle Dobbins
President, Blue Ridge Chapter of CSI
