EDITORIAL
We welcome you
back to the 2009-2010 SCECA “season” and wish you a “Happy New
Year.” Those of you who were able to attend the SCECA Picnic at
the L.I. Ducks game had a wonderful time. (Sorry your editor
missed it! We were in a cooler climate at the time, touring
Alaska.)
Members who attended and voted on the proposed changes of
SCECA’s Constitution and Bylaws at the June General Meeting made
their choices known. They will be followed by your
newly-installed Officers and Board.
For many of us, the summer weather and its anticipated work were
a disappointment. We’ve been reading that the economy is
recovering, but need to see it in “black & white,” on some
checks and signed work contracts. SCECA will continue to promote
you, our members, and provide seminars to assist you and your
business.

There are times
when I think we have become insensitive if not immune to news
events. We view these various pieces, and then click our minds
to “safe mode.” That happens until something strikes close to
home. Some rather sad news is detailed in our Good and Welfare
section:
We mourn the passing of SCECA Historian, Past-president and
founding member Donald McCarthy. At press time, we learned that
Charles Schwing of Schwing Elec. Supply Corp. passed away. Abe
Cohen, son of Jack Cohen passed away as well. We extend our
sympathies to their family and friends and kindly ask for your
prayers.

To our Jewish
colleagues, we wish you an easy fast for Yom Kippur and A Happy
New Year for Rosh Hashanah.
