I am very pleased to say that I have been asked to present a program revolving around the "green roof" that we installed last year at the Operations building. The presentation will be at the www.Schooldude.com university in Myrtle Beach, SC March 28, 2009. This will be a great opportunity to show the usefulness of this energy saving/environmental initiative in a national forum. It does have many educational components.
I also will be working with MartinCompany devloping a protocal for the effeicent day to day operations of K-12 school districts and Community Colleges.
So my new company (SE Michigan Facilities Management, LLC) is starting to take off and giving me many opportunities to be productive. I will be presenting this new porgram at Crystal Mountain September, 2008.
Stay tuned for more on my new adventure.

RETIREMENT
Well, I retired from the schools as of June 30, 2008. As of July 1, 2008 I started my new Business, SE Michigan Facilities Management, LLC a consulting company. I also started working for Fraser Public Schools as an independent contractor. I will be working for them for 220 days a year. The contract is for three years until June 30, 2011. I also will be doing work for Martin MacElroy Company as a consultant.
I do not have to worry about as much; my pension will also start some time in August 2008. So even if my company does not work I still will have my pension to get me threw the tighter times.
Tuesday I will be teaching a seminar at Oakland University on Facilities Management and the school environment. This will also give me many new contacts for the new business.
So as things go I am pretty excited about the future. Maybe by 2011 I will completely retire and travel doing the things I like (golf, camp, travel). Connie does not want to stop working until our 62 birthdays. We shall see.
