Monique et al.:
Some (if not many) of the leaders and attendees to national and regional meetings will do so on their own dimes or with limited travel funds.
It has many names: Sacrificial leadership, technical tithing, or just plain leadership. In plain speak, leaders (as opposed to managers) must be willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. If that means sacrificing time, talent or treasure, they do it. While time/money does play a role, that role is subservient to doing what is right and must be done.
Max DuPree had a lot to say about leadership: "The first job of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say, 'thank you.'" In between the two, the leader must become a servant and a debtor." Some of us learned that from military experience, others from Max or from the Scouting program "Woodbadge," and still others figured it out on their own. The bottom line is that leadership, in any field, requires sacrifice.
One of the unique qualities that sets DCHAS apart from other professional organizations is that we have many leaders in the division. It is one of the reasons why us geezers have been around so long.

How do so many of you get the time off and money to go to so many kinds of meetings? This looks like a great one to attend.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] CHAS programming at SERMACS
From: "Sammye B. Sigmann" All - If you are attending the Southeastern Regional Meeting (SERMACS) this fall, please consider attending the Friday morning symposium organized by Mark Lassiter and myself, "Learning Laboratory Safety Through Storytelling" - Sponsored by CHAS. Bob Hill is our Keynote speaker and we hope to have an audience engaging panel discussion after his concluding talk. SERMACS wil be held November 7 to 11 in Charlotte, NC. November 10th, 2017 Learning Laboratory Safety Through Storytelling (Oral) M. Lassiter, S. B. Sigmann, Organizers, Presiding 9:00 Introductory Remarks. I have also organized a workshop "Improving Chemical Safety in Schools" on Friday aimed primarily as Secondary Ed folks (teachers, administrators, museums, etc.), but anyone can register. We have a cap set at 25 due to room size (same room as the morning session) and there is a $5 registration fee. Lunch is included. This 2 hour workshop is co-sponsored by CHAS, CCS, and the ACS High School Office. Thanks and let me know if you have any questions about either event. -- --- --- ---
