Happy New ASQ Year!
July 1 is New ASQ Year’s Day, the beginning of the ASQ year that runs through June 30, 2011.
I would like to congratulate and thank the 2009-2010 ASQ Leadership Council, who under the leadership of Tauna Schachle helped us serve the needs of the quality community in the Raleigh area. We had nationally known speakers at our dinner meetings, very well attended tours of local organizations, and a fantastic Quality in the Triangle conference, including a pre-conference tutorial by Dennis Arter, author of multiple auditing books. We also served our local area through our Community Good Works program and donations to the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina, Duke Children’s Hospital, and Habitat for Humanity.
Our monthly “third Tuesday of the month” dinner meetings and tours will resume in September. This summer, we have one volunteer activity planned for members. [The previously planned Mudcats baseball game on July 17 with the Eastern Carolina section has been cancelled due to low registration numbers.] We will host a volunteer day at the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina in Raleigh on Saturday, August 28, from 9am to noon. Please sign up at sign up at http://asqraleighvolunteer.eventbrite.com/ or contact Mary Chris Easterly at mary.chris.easterly@sp.diosynth.com for more information.
ASQ is a volunteer organization - we rely on our members to help us serve the quality community. We have many dedicated members remaining on our Leadership Council for 2010-2011, some of whom are rotating roles and others who continue to serve the section as proficient professionals. We also have some new volunteers: please join me in welcoming the following new chairs: Nancy Harmon (Arrangements), Maria Posada (Programs), and Natalie McClain Upchurch (Student Advisor). Please see the executive committee at: http://asqraleigh.org/about/executive-board/ and other members of the Leadership Council at: http://asqraleigh.org/about/leadership-council/
We still have several openings on the Leadership Council as well as on the 2011 Quality in the Triangle Conference committee, led again this year by Stuart Walker. If you are interested in any of the following positions, please contact us to learn more.
Leadership Council (contact Mary Chris Easterly): Community Good Works, Historian, and Website Support.

If you have any questions about the section, want to volunteer, or have suggestions for how we can make this a great year for you, please let us know! We are always open to feedback and continuous improvement of the section.
