President's Message:

In this month of Thanksgiving, I wanted to say how thankful I am for all of you volunteering your time and effort in the numerous ways you do within ASHRAE. Whether you have been a member for decades, or simply days, each of you offering up your time to attend general meetings each month is the lifeblood of this great volunteer organization, so thank you. Every time you attend a YEA happy hour or help contribute for a Membership or Research Promotion event, you’re donating your time, effort, and even funds to help better this organization and the missions we’re trying to achieve. Thank you.

For those of you who have chosen to volunteer even more of your time and effort and get involved in a chapter committee, thank you. Your passion and dedication to each committee is vital to the continued success of the Nebraska Chapter. So many of you have had a direct impact on improving the chapter, which translates into improving our local codes, building design, construction, and environment and the list goes on and on. Thank you for all of this.

There’s countless of you who serve on Technical Committees and other society level functions. Thank you. To those who have had the opportunity to serve on board positions, thank you all. You never stop thinking of how your actions impact our members and the community around us, both locally and globally, and it’s a testament to the generous volunteers we have here in our Nebraska chapter.

As an entirely volunteer organization, it’s important to continuously appreciate the contributions that each individual member makes, regardless of how small it may seem at the time. These all make up our organization as a whole. Thank you for choosing to be involved and giving of your time, thoughts, and talents. May you all have a wonderful season of Thanksgiving surrounded by friends and family.
