Message from the Chairman Welcome to another fun and action packed year of the Pacific Northwest section of the ASNT. The past year has brought some successes to the Section that I want to share with you in the hope that we can continue this momentum into the coming year. First, we received the honor of placing fifth in terms of Presi-dent’s Points out of all ASNT Sections throughout the world. This is a sig-nificant accomplishment given that we are one of the smaller Sections and can be attributed to the hard work of Emery Roberts and those who as-sisted him in this effort. Secondly we achieved one of our primary goals of providing educational opportunities to the membership and others in the NDT community through the 2005 Radiation Safety Refresher seminar last March, and the Level 2 radiography course in May. We hope to continue this path for 2006 and will offer the Radiation Safety seminar in March, as well as a planned radiographic interpretation course later in the year. As in previous years, one of the primary goals of the section for the com-ing year is to increase membership. Not only did we fail to meet this goal last year, membership actually decreased! I want to encourage all of you who are active to recruit new members to the section, and please let us know if you have any suggestions as to how to reverse this trend. Increasing attendance at the monthly meetings is also one of our goals and we have a pretty good program schedule for this year so I'm hoping to see increased participation. In addition to the usual monthly topical meet-ings we will be having a Vendor’s Night technical exhibit at the Museum of Flight on April 6th. This is free admission night to the Museum so it provides an excellent opportunity not only to see the latest and great-est in NDI equipment, but also a chance to tour the wonderful aircraft dis-plays including the new Personal Courage Wing. Watch the newsletter for details on this exciting event. In closing please remember that our section exists to provide you, the membership, with the products and services that you want. If there is something you feel we should change, or something new we should offer, please feel free to contact me or any of the officers or board members and let us know what you want. We will do our best to accommodate your wishes.

Sincerely, Bill Meade - Chairman
