As incoming President of the Chesapeake Bay Division of the International Association for
Identification, I would first like to congratulate John D. Heverin, III for a job well done
during his year in office. On behalf of the membership, I would like to thank John's staff
and the citizens of the State of Delaware for the warm reception and genuine hospitality shown
to us during our last two meetings. I am certain that we will long remember our visits to
Dover and Rehoboth Beach and the kind people we have encountered there.
As to the business of Identification; The Fingerprint Certification Program is well on its
way to becoming operational. Currently, your Certification Committee consists of:
No doubt, the committee will have a busy year, in ironing out the logistical problems of
implementing this program.
I have appointed two working committees for the upcoming year:
By-Laws Committee: As an extensive period of time has elasped
since our By-Laws, in total, have been critically reviewed, and due to the establishment
of the Latent Print Certification Program, I feel that certain changes may be appropriate.
I have asked Randy Goodwin to review the By-Laws and to submit his recommendations to
the Division for consideration.
Historian: For every year of existence as an organization, we generate
a page or two of passing events which become our history. If not documented, these events, both
good and bad, become lost in the jumble of things we deal with from day to day. For this reason,
I have appointed Lillian Jenkins as Historian of the Division, so that in future years, the
membership may benefit from our mistakes and accomplishments.
I have planned for the Spring meeting to be held on May 19 and 20, at the King's Quarters Motor
Lodge at King's Dominion, Virginia. The body of the meetings has been expanded to one and a half
days. A variety of meeting packages have been made available, in an attempt to cater to as many
individual requirements as possible. In view of the subject material, speaker's platform and
activities available at King's Dominion, only your attendance will be needed to make this meeting
a complete success. I am looking forward to seeing you at King's Dominion in May.
