AIC April Meeting

All Board Members:
 
The monthly business/lunch meeting is being held this Saturday April 17, 2010 at 0900 hrs.  The meeting will be held at the storage place.   Locations is:   Sentinel Storage, 4817 N. 7th Ave., Phoenix, AZ  85013. (just south of Camelback on the east side of 7th Ave).   Plan on wearing grubbies to clean out the storage place and hopefully get rid of some of the old stuff that has been accumulated.  Also if you are currently storing AIC stuff that is not used on a regular basis and need to get them out of your garage, then this may be a good time to bring that stuff to a central location.  I will plan on having boxes there that can be repacked.  I don’t want to use large boxes, simply because they are heavy to lift, and if we pack everything in the same size box, they store easier.  When we are done, let’s plan on having lunch (for all the hard work that we are going to be doing) and we can discuss things that have been scheduled and need to be done.  More of an informal informational meeting that a regular meeting.   They do have bins for throwing stuff away there, but we will want to be cautious about what to be thrown away and what needs to be put in a shredder.  
 
Let me know if you can make it, so I can plan how many people will be there.  I don’t want to be the only one showing up. HAHAHA   I know for sure there is some old computer equipment, along with old paperwork and supplies and all assorted stuff????
 
Thanks

Latent print training in Flagstaff

Erin Daniel is on a fact finding mission to see if anyone would be interested in the below listed class tentatively scheduled June 24-25. This is not set in stone yet. Erin is just putting feelers out there whether this would draw some attendants. Please contact her if you would be interested.  

Alice Maceo has an opening for her 2-day distortion class June 24-25 (she does Thursday-Friday classes only). We would be willing to host the class here in Flagstaff (nice time to get out of the valley!). It would be $200 a person and I would need to fill at least 20 seats. So please pass this on to anyone in your agency that would be interested and let me know if you would like to attend. I don’t need an absolute yes, but I need to know if we could get 20 people up here so I can book Alice for that time. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for your time.
