GREAT NEWS FOR ILLINOIS PRINTED DESIGNERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IPC and the Illinois Electronics Manufacturing Extension Center (EMEC) 
will be hosting a get together to explore the formation of an

	ILLINOIS CHAPTER OF THE IPC DESIGNERS COUNCIL

We will have the right people on-hand to explain all the details of the 
IPC Designers Council program, mainly Dieter Bergman op the IPC, whom 
many of you already know. Dieter has been the real driving force behind 
most of the Printed Board Design prorgams for the IPC.

WHERE, WHEN, WHAT TIME WILL THE MEETING HAPPEN ????????

Where:  IPC Head Quarters	When:  October 19, 1995 (Thursday)
        2215 Sanders Road	       6:00 to about 9:00 PM
	Northbrook, IL.

Please RSVP if you can, but come anyway if you don't get a chance.

There are numerous companies designing printed boards in this area. It's 
about time that the hard working Printed Board Designers had an 
organization of their own which elevates professional recognition, 
provides peer networking, and provides opportunities to increase their 
knowledge base. As we all know, it's a challenge to keep pace with 
today's rapidly changing technology. 

HOW TO GET HERE: IPC is located very near the Willow Road, Northbrook/ 
Wheeling exit off of the 294 Tollway. Exit off of 294 onto Willow Rd. 
WEST, then go to the first major intersection, which is SANDERS RD., turn 
right (north); you will go just a short distance to a traffic signal; at 
this trafic signal you will turn right into the IPC building parking lot; 
you will imediately see a white 4 story building, which is in two parts 
with an archway between the two halfs; IPC offices are in the right 
(south) side on the second floor; enter through the doors under the 
archway (there will be a sign over the door saying South Building). I 
hope you are able to be here. 

PS: No need to be fancy or formal, come as you are from work or where 
ever. Munchies will be served so you won't starve.
