SAVE San Diego Chapter Happenings

By George Bartolomei, CVS-Life

Lots going on in San Diego! Chapter member Dave Bloxom is now both the SAVE International Western Region Manager and the Editor of Value World, and Aaron Rouch, San Diego County Water Authority VE Program Manager, is now our new Vice President Membership.

Aaron is leading our planning for a “Meet & Greet” event for late summer, where the San Diego Chapter will provide appetizers as host to a gathering of Chapter members and others interested in VE at a local brewery or restaurant. The plan is to determine member and community interest in Chapter events, via informal discussions at the “Meet & Greet” and the results of a meeting survey recently distributed to San Diego Chapter members and others.

Thanks to Chili Cilch, CalTrans Branch Manager responsible for Value Analysis, a survey template she developed made responses simple and convenient to complete. The survey template was provided to the SAVE business office for use by any other SAVE Chapters that might want to do a similar survey.
