President’s Choice Meeting
This will be incoming President, Steve Lundquist’s opportunity to lay out
how the 2014-2015 year will look for the chapter, and tell you about his
plans.
As a special treat, our guest speaker will be Mr. Andy Harthcock, the
owner and founder of Djinn Spirits. Andy will relate his experiences in
founding the distillery, and how after earning his PMP he discovered he
was using a lot of the principles of the PMBoK getting Djinn Spirits
running. After his presentation, we will adjourn to the distillery (right
behind the Country Tavern) where Andy will give us a guided tour of the
facility, and have samples of his Beat 3 White Whiskey and Distilled Gin.

Guest Speaker
• Andy Harthcock
• Djinn Spirits is the creation of Andy and Cindy Harthcock. After
30 years in engineering, plus Master's degrees in Computer
Engineering and Engineering Management, Andy wanted to
step outside corporate life. And after a full career in Nursing,
Cindy was ready for something new as well. They searched for
several years until that one day when Cindy mentioned "distilling
would be fun..." And that did it. They found a way to combine
their love for the aesthetics of taste with the creative technical
side. Distillation provides not only 2000 years of lore, but the
chance to use some very new technology.
