Letter from EGCR’s Chairman
Dear EGCR Participants,
As Chairman of the EGCR and on behalf of the EGCR Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you to the 41st Annual Eastern Gas Compression Roundtable. It is hard to believe that an organization that started as just an idea in 1972 is still a relevant entity in today’s changing marketplace. The reason that the EGCR is thriving after all these years is due to the quality of the people who have been associated with this group. I continually marvel at the hard work and dedication that the committee members put into this volunteer organization. Some of the companies (and even individuals) have been associated with the EGCR since the beginning. That is dedication.
A special thanks is extended to the companies that continue to support us by choosing the EGCR as a partner in helping them meet their training goals. When you visit the EGCR, you’ll see both old friends and new faces in the exhibit hall with new products and services. I encourage you to stop and visit with everyone there to learn about what’s new in the industry.
The EGCR is a non-profit organization that strives to provide quality training to all facets the Natural Gas Industry. If you haven’t recently attended the EGCR, we invite you to visit the conference and experience first-hand the quality of our training classes and programs. As an organization, it is our goal each year to improve the quality and variety of our training.
Over the years we have not only developed our own programs and topics but we have evolved to become less “Roundtable” focused and more instructional to aid attendees in the performance of their duties and to become a better educational tool for attendees. Additionally, many of the instructors are employees with the Natural Gas companies we serve. These individuals bring a wealth of both experience and expertise to our sessions.
Interested in getting involved? EGCR is your organization - we encourage member participation in planning the future of the EGCR and hope you will consider volunteering. Write to us or stop by the registration desk at the Roundtable for more information.
I am excited about the program that is being offered for the 2013 EGCR and I look forward to seeing you among our attendees!
Sincerely,
Bruce Walker
2013 EGCR Chairman
