Welcome to the 2025-2026 ASHRAE year. I’m excited to serve as the Sierra-Delta Chapter President and look forward to having a successful year. Our society President, Bill McQuade’s focus is “Healthy Buildings: Designing for Life”. The Sierra-Delta Chapter will put emphasis on this statement throughout the year with technical presentations focusing on his mission statement.

I’d like to thank our board, chapter officers and members for their volunteerism and their dedication to our society as well as helping make our chapter successful at the grassroots level. Without all of our donations and time we wouldn’t survive as a chapter so I thank all of you for your invested time!

Whether you are interested in a particular topic or becoming a fulltime member I welcome everyone to attend one or more of our upcoming meetings this year. I look forward to seeing you at one of our monthly meetings at Papapalloni’s Bistro in Modesto on the 2nd Thursday of each month for our dinner meetings.
