The Secunda branch activities for 2009 ended with a very well organised year-end function which, from feedback received, was enjoyed by everyone who attended.
For our last site visit of 2009, NIC Instruments and Engineering took us through its workshop in Secunda and gave a very interesting presentation on the Magnetrol range of instruments. Our next scheduled event will be the Annual General Meeting. This will be held in mid January and we will hopefully have just as many members attending as we had at our Technology Evenings last year.
I would like to wish all the members of the SAIMC and all our sponsors, visitors and friends who supported us during 2009, a prosperous 2010. Let us all work together and grow the SAIMC at a rate we have never experienced before. Council have big ideas for the next year and hope to see the start of a new era in which the SAIMC will become a household name in Africa.
Feel free to contact me on my cell +27 (0)83 310 7925 or by e-mail at [email protected] if you have any questions which relate to the SAIMC or our branch activities.
