Suzanne Heskin
Thanks to all who trekked to the alternate lunch
location last month. I hope it was a great meeting.
Being flexible is important, especially in times like
these. This is a good time to think about how we can do
things differently, or what we can do differently to
help the industry, our coworkers, or ourselves. Perhaps
it is something big, but sometimes small changes can
cause a ripple effect.
Please look for upcoming announcements about the
Spring Workshop and attend if you can. Continuing to
learn and network is key!
Lastly, go Broncos!

Katerina Yared (QEP) - filling in
Dear DWLS members, it is in these hard times that we
try and make the best out of our situation. Using a
quote from Mahatma Gandhi: "The future depends on what
you do today".- There is no better time than now to
volunteer for the DWLS board and keep connected with the
oil and gas industry. Become actively involved and help
keep the networking and knowledge-sharing efforts as
well as expertise in our chapter. We are a strong
community and we hope you can help us keep our members
up-to-date and informed. This last year has been tough
for everyone. You can help do your part for all good
reasons. If you are interested please come talk to me at
our meetings or email me: Past_President@dwls.spwla.org.
The current board has done a great job in keeping us
informed and connected all through the year despite the
hardships in their lives. I want to thank them all again
for their time and for a job well done! Thank you!
And of course last but not least: GO BRONCOS!
See you soon and be safe.

From the Webmaster

Tony Holmes (Digital Formation)
It is time once again we remind you that the DWLS has
several items for sale, most of which are extremely
fascinating to those of us "in the know." Even if
you were not aware of these before, now is your chance
to become part of the "in" crowd. Actually, for
most of the items we just want to recoup the costs
already paid out, so please don’t think you are funding
a vacation for your Board. The notable exception is
Phil Nelson's book, where all of the proceeds go to
SPWLA scholarships. Please visit
http://dwls.spwla.org/Shopping_Mall.htm and find the
next gem for your bookshelf.

Meeting Details

Due to the difficult times, the Board of
Directors has reluctantly decided to put the
monthly free beverages program on hiatus.
We will still accept sponsorship if you
would like to offer it, but we will no
longer be spending time and effort in an attempt
at finding willing sponsors.
