Mark your calendars, the 2014 Technical Seminar event is set! We have reserved the Hawaii Prince Hotel Waikiki for May 16, 2014. The seminar theme is Designing Buildings in Hot and Humid Climates. We are planning a great lineup of interesting topics and speakers for you, including industry experts and the current ASHRAE President.

The seminar will be from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm in the Halekala/Kilauea Banquet room. Lunch will be buffet style at the hotel’s Prince Court Buffet. If you haven’t tried this buffet yet, I highly recommend it. The Prince Court Buffet is one of my favorites. The technical seminar will be followed by a cocktail reception in the Marina Front Lounge (Hawaii Prince 1st floor), which gives you the opportunity to mingle with the presenters, ASHRAE members, and guests.
We hope that all of you will come out to join us and support the ASHRAE technical seminar!
