Word from Chair
 The Spring has
arrived and so is the feeling of “happy days are here again”. Wishing
you all a Happy Spring! We had very informative and well-attended
meetings during the winter. The speakers were well-accomplished in their
respective areas. Click the links under "Photo
Galleries" to view pictures of Feb-Mar-Apr meetings.
Our last meeting of the year is Students’ night and is scheduled on May 6, 2009 at the University of Delaware.
This meeting is very special since students of our section are
recognized and awarded scholarships to support their endeavors in the
area of food science and technology. Winners of the Tri-State Area
science fair are also honored at this meeting. Your support in
encouraging and cheering the emerging food science professionals is very
critical and I hope you would be able to join us at this meeting.
Registration to attend this meeting could be made by Clicking

Food safety, sustainability and policy are the three topics being
discussed all around including at the Capitol Hill. Although the
economic times are tough these days, the good news is that the
President’s appointees are renowned in their area and they have proven
themselves for their job. A heads up to all members, exhibitors and
participants- the upcoming Golf Outing and suppliers’ Night are
scheduled tentatively on October 5th and November 5th 2009 respectively.
You are encouraged to save these dates in your calendar. I would also
like to draw everyone’s attention that the location of this year’s
suppliers’ night has changed to Hotel Merion, Cinnaminson, NJ.
Recently our section’s election for the upcoming year’s committee was
completed. A big “thank you” to those who voted at this election. Very
soon the details of the newly elected committee will be published on
this website.
