Cleveland SPE Members,

On May 16, at the Blue Canyon in Twinsburg, OH, the SPE CLE Board of Directors was honored to present Mr. John Sovis, former SPE CLE Board member, with an award for his dedicated service to our CLE Chapter. John served in many roles on the Board for many years. Thank you, John, and congratulations!

In addition to thanking the Board members pictured, I would also like to thank Todd Waddle, Membership Chair, for his dedicated service. All of the Board of Director members will return for the 2022-2023 calendar year. Thank you SPE CLE Board of Directors!

Also during our May 16 meeting, NEOSF winner, Jasmine Chen, was presented with a Certificate of Achievement. We were honored to have Jasmine and her father, Dr. J. Chen, join us. Jasmine is featured later in this newsletter. Although the 2021-2022 activities and programs have come to a close, we are grateful to the many technical presenters who shared relevant and timely insights with our membership. We appreciated working closely with the SPE Akron Chapter and the SPE Injection Molding Division to plan some of these events.

We have some great events already planned for our 2022-2023 calendar year.

Plan to join us for some upcoming events:

September 20-22, 2022:
JOINT IN-PERSON CONFERENCE sponsored by SPE AKRON TPE CONFERENCE, AKRON, OH

THURSDAY, October 13, 2022:
JOINT IN-PERSON CONFERENCE sponsored by SPE INJECTION MOLDING DIVISON AND SPE CLE

“SUSTAINABILITY ROCKS: PART II”
CORPORATE COLLEGE, WARRENSVILLE, HEIGHTS, OH
SEEKING SPONSORS AND PRESENTERS: MORE TO COME!

On behalf of the SPE CLE Board of Directors, we wish all of you a very happy and safe summer. We look forward to
seeing you in the fall!

Best Regards,

Susan Montgomery
President
SPE Cleveland
