President's Message

Congratulations to our own Robert (Bobby) Schaal on being inducted as President for the International Association of Arson Investigators. It was a privilege to be in attendance during the Induction Ceremony. Our Chapter was well represented at the International Conference. I would like to thank all the Chapter members who took time from their busy schedules to attend.

On another note our Northern Training in Shreveport went extremely well. We were fortunate to have Dr. John Dehaan provide excellent training to our members. I would like to recognize Life Member Bo Roberts for his efforts in arranging Dr. Dehaan's appearance.

In the near future our Southern Training Day is scheduled for July 17th. Southern Vice President Daryl Sanders is arranging a curriculum on fire fatalities.

Our Annual Fall Training Conference will be held in Lafayette, Louisiana and has been tentatively scheduled for September 30th, October 1st, and October 2nd. Marine Fire Investigation will be the topic of instruction. Please refer back to the web site for details concerning all upcoming training.

Sincerely,
President Don Davenport
