Holiday – Memorial Day
Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the last Monday of May (on May 31 in 2010). Formerly known as Decoration Day, it commemorates U.S. men and women who died while in military service to their country. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War (it is celebrated near the day of reunification after the civil war), it was expanded after World War I to include American casualties of any war or military action.
ASQ Baltimore would like to honor and remember the brave men and woman who have defended their country through the armed services. Thank you.
Thank you
End of Year Wrap-up.
Thanks to our members for helping make this a great Program Year.
We have had some interesting programs, some new events and hope to continue this year’s success into the next year.
The Board will be addressing most of the issues brought up during the SWOT Analysis that was started. Look forward to improvements coming up. The input will be the primary discussion at the year-end Strategy meeting.
The website will also be updated (mostly content) over the summer and should be checked somewhat regularly if you are interested in keeping up with the Membership news.
The proposed schedule of next year’s events will be announced soon, as well as some opportunities for the membership to help implement some of the suggestions that we have received over the last year.
Event/Program Location Contest
We are listening to your comments. And we hear that you want a meeting on the North side of Baltimore. As a result, we are pleased to announce a location contest. Locate a venue that meets the criteria and provide us your suggestion. If we use your suggestion, you will receive a coupon for a free dinner meeting for the meeting held at that location. In the case of more than one suggestion for a location that is used, we will draw the winner from all who suggested the location.
We are looking for a venue similar to Snyder’s Restaurant with the following criteria:
- Seating 50 – 75
- Private meeting room
- On-site catering under $30/person including the meeting room
- Ample on-site parking
- Easy access to major highways
Note that Red Brick Station and Williamsburg Inn have been used in the past and were found to be less than satisfactory because of the meeting room conditions.
Please submit your suggestions (venue name and address) to 
We are looking forward to your suggestions.

Website Hosting Issues
Unfortunately, the hosting company was having issues last night after 5:30pm. The issues were not resolved until this 7:20am morning.
If you were trying to connect to the ASQ Baltimore or ASQ JobSeekers website last night, please try again.
This was affecting both the ASQ Baltimore website and the ASQ Baltimore JobSeekers website. We are working on resolving the various issues that we have been experiencing over the past year.
Thank you.
Eric F, Webmaster, ASQ Baltimore
