Greetings again Mansfield Quality Pro's,

SPRING finally arrived. What a welcome relief!

Well, May is the last month of our "school year". So if you have been meaning to attend an ASQ meeting/tour this "year", this is your last opportunity until Fall. And we DON"T want to think about Fall now!

Our Mansfield section hasn't focused on the Health Care industry for a while. But this month we have an excellent opportunity to look at maintaining Quality in a hospital. And if Quality isn't important in a hospital, then where is it important? Try to be available for our May tour of Mansfield Medcentral on Thursday, May 14th.

Please call or email Caryn by this Thursday afternoon(May 7) if you can attend (& get .3 free ru's!).

Even though we won't be having meetings in June, July, or August, I will still be checking emails and passing along info to our members. So if you change your email address, or if you move, or if you come across some local Quality job opportunity, let me know via email is preferred.

Enjoy that Spring yard work and planting. But save next Thursday, May14th for our meeting/tour.

Best regards,

Joe
