ACEC Manitoba is your association,<br />
we thrive and are effective only as a<br />
direct result <strong>of</strong> the combined efforts<br />
and participation <strong>of</strong> volunteers form<br />
our member firms. In the coming year,<br />
your association will be communicating<br />
with our membership in a more<br />
direct and regular way, to ensure<br />
that our members are well informed<br />
about the association’s activities<br />
and programs. In return, we will be<br />
asking for more interaction with the<br />
members. We need your feedback<br />
and comments on everything that we<br />
do. We want to know what issues our<br />
members are facing, and we need to<br />
respond quickly and in a meaningful<br />
way to those needs. We also need<br />
your help in volunteering on various<br />
committees and ad hoc committees.<br />
No one understands the needs <strong>of</strong> our<br />
businesses better than our members,<br />
no one can champion those issues<br />
better than our members.<br />
In concluding this message, I want<br />
to remind you that your association is<br />
here to promote the business interests<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Consulting Engineers <strong>of</strong><br />
Manitoba; and to promote the<br />
application <strong>of</strong> engineering for the<br />
benefit <strong>of</strong> society. We do this through<br />
uniting our member companies<br />
together for the common good,<br />
pooling your knowledge and expertise,<br />
and we do this through the generous<br />
support <strong>of</strong> our volunteers, and we<br />
encourage each <strong>of</strong> you to join with us,<br />
and take on an active responsibility<br />
to make our association, and our<br />
membership stronger.<br />
