• Sponsored (6) six $1000 scholarships• Technical Seminars before Chapter

meetings• Energy Modeling Meetings

Success Stories1. Set up emails and email reminders in

August/September.2. Consistent BOG meeting time/date3. Energy modeling Meeting and PDH reporting4. Scholarships (6) six $1000 scholarships split

between UW Madison and UW Platteville5. First to Par in multiple categories (PAOE)6. Less Technical Sessions this year.

Lessons Learned1. Don’t provide presentation to students the

week before midterms.2. Don’t pick a YEA committee chair/BOG

member that travels a lot. 3. Local chapter membership is harder to

retain members due to company turnover and cutbacks.

4. Volunteers – We found the need to ask individuals directly to participate

Finances

• We have a healthy financial portfolio. We have encouraged members to attend Chapter meetings by keeping the meeting cost down ($20 or $100 per year), but providing them with a good meal and seminar.

Membership Promotion• Very successful year of meeting goals:

– Reduced chapter delinquency (13 to 8)– Working on increased local chapter membership – New members (21) and student members (3)

recognized at every chapter meeting– Student retention is high (27 returning students)

• Membership retention is an issue this year.
