Greetings to all my OSIFT friends and colleagues, The past couple of days in the Willamette Valley have me believing that summer is not really behind us, but it is. Students, professors and staff at most of Oregon’s universities and colleges are back in their classrooms this week. I wish all of you a wonderfully successful year! With that thought I want to encourage all of you to attend our October meeting at Alessandro’s in Salem. In addition to a great speaker, our October meeting is also our annual Scholarship Night. Six lucky recipients will be recognized as OSIFT scholarship recipients at this event. Other scholarships will also be awarded at this event. This is another great opportunity to come out and support the students who will be carrying our industry into the future. All meetings, but especially the Scholarship meeting, are a good place to rub elbows with the best and the brightest current OSU Food Science students. While you may not be in a position to hire anyone today, none of us knows what the future will bring. Being well acquainted with the future leaders of our industry may be your greatest asset when your next staffing challenge presents itself. Our September event was an incredible success! In addition to the high attendance numbers (65 guests!), the incredible mix of attendees was wonderful! There were more recent graduates than many “old timers” ever remember seeing at an OSIFT meeting. Eight former chairs of the Oregon Section were there to support the cause! My heartfelt gratitude goes out to everyone who attended and to all the donors who made the event possible. For those of you who were unable to attend, we have many more opportunities for you this year! Cheers! Joanne Barnard |
