On February 16, we have “Energy Codes & Integrated Building Technology” presented by Jim Phelan who is the Midwest Regional Sales Manager of Crestron Electronics. The program is sponsored by Jack Duffy & Associates. The phrase “Integrated Building Technology” has been floating around the Lighting Industry for a year and many designers want to know; Is it just a fancy name for lighting controls or is it much more? Please join us for the lunchtime presentation at the Hilton Garden Inn Downtown to see what Integrated Building Technology is, its benefits, and its role in fulfilling the changing energy codes and standards.

We would like to thank Rick Racey of Beacon Lighting for presenting the “LED Fundamentals Workshop” and Lighting Dynamics for sponsoring the January 17 program. The program was a great success with over 50 people attending the “LED Fundamentals Workshop.” For those of you who attended, Thank You.

Note: If you would like to attend the February program, but wish to pay via cash or check at the door, please contact Wendy Turkuc to RSVP.

We have our March Program scheduled to be part of the Electro Expo 2012 at the IX Center. Our program is from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. on March 21, which is a two-hour presentation. There are some free seminars at the Electro Expo, but to bring in the quality of speakers and great presentations, there usually are some costs involved. For $40.00 ($20.00 per credit hour), we have three well known speakers; Ardra Zinkon of TEC Inc., Eric Lind of Lutron and Paula Ziegenbein of Osram Sylvania presenting “LEDs Magical Mystery Tour and the Map to Get There.” Please keep this program in mind when you attend the Expo. Also, come visit us at the booth.

Our April Program will be “Outdoor Area Lighting Applications,” which is presented by Daybrite Lighting and sponsored by Intelligent Illuminations. The program will be AIA and PE credited and located at the Hilton Garden Inn Downtown on April 24 at lunchtime.

In May, we are currently working on a program at the new Aquarium. We will keep you informed if this program idea becomes a reality.

Finally, in June, is the IES Golf Outing. We will let you know the confirmed date as soon as possible.
