Chesapeake Post Presidents Message

Message from the President

SAME Chesapeake Post Members, Colleagues and Guest, as your new post president, Bill Baker, I welcome you. This year is going to be an exciting year. We are starting out with interesting and engaging speakers at our monthly post meeting which happens the 3rd Thursday of each month from September to May to be held at the Wetlands Golf Club in Aberdeen, Maryland. Next on November 4th the Chesapeake Post will be hosting the SAME Regional Conference Golf Tournament to be played at the Rocky Point Golf Course in Essex, Maryland.

Our scholarship effort in the past year has increased our amount of scholarship awards by over 400%, we are looking to do even better. This scholarship awards go to local worthy engineering students that attend local schools. Your contributions by attending our monthly meeting and participating in the raffle, being a sustaining member firm at our monthly meeting and making a donation and/or playing golf all these proceeds go directly into the scholarship fund.

The more we get the more we can give out. This way to give back to the community and help these students that are pursuing an engineering education can receive financial support. The Chesapeake Post continues to support our mentoring and outreach to engineering students through various activities such as the Aberdeen High School STEM Senior Capstone project in September and the I-95 Business Magazine mentoring program in October. For more information you can contact Stan Childs.

So, you are welcome to be part of an organization that is involved with the community, engineering students and the engineering industry. If you have any questions or need information, feel free to contact me or any member of the board or committee leaders. I hope to see you there.

Bill Baker
Chesapeake Post President
