DO YOU KNOW THESE PAST PRESIDENTS?
They have helped make Chicago Section what it is today!

Have you had the privilege of knowing any of these special people? Though we have Past Presidents attend our programs and events during the year, each year we especially like to see them join us at our May Annual Awards and Recognition Night where they are recognized for the important part they have played in SPE Chicago Section’s history.

As time marches on in this fast-paced world, we try to keep in touch with our Past Presidents. Unfortunately we have lost touch with some of them. If you are acquainted with any of these special people, please let them know we may be looking for them. You can also call Bonnie Jo at +1 847/991-4629 or via email Admin@SPEChicago.org with any information you may have.

We encourage all members and friends to attend our May meetings to say hello to the “old salts” being honored. If you don’t know our Past Presidents, maybe it’s time you took a moment to come join them at our next May meeting and introduce yourself.
