2 2018 Southeast Chapter Supplier s Social Event The Southeast Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists proudly announces the 2018 Suppliers Social Event to be held Thursday June 21st at the Fire Museum in Memphis TN. The event will consist of a social hour followed by dinner, and a drawing of door prizes. In the heart of downtown Memphis, the FMOM is considered the premiere fire museum in the country, dedicated to documenting and promoting the local history of fire-fighting and educating the public in fire and life safety. The FMOM hosts fire departments both nationally and internationally in their quest to emulate their success. Working with the University of Memphis to validate their Fire Prevention Public Education Curriculum, the Fire Museum of Memphis is the first of its kind to capture data, testing their Fire Prevention effectiveness. The museum provides interactive exhibits as well as video documentation. In 2014, the museum underwent 1.5 million dollars in renovations. Suppliers are invited to help sponsor this event with cash donations and/or door prizes. As in years past, we have special categories of sponsorship: silver ($150), gold ($300) and platinum ($600). McCullough & Associates has graciously agreed to be the Cocktail Sponsor again this year. All category sponsors will honorably be recognized from the podium and in the newsletter.

3 Message from the Southeast Chapter Chair The Southeast Chapter held our April 19th meeting at Char Restaurant in Memphis. The meeting was well attended by 29 members and guests. Our speaker, Tanujakumari (Tanuja) Ramasubramaniam, came very well versed with extensive experience from various roles within Avon Products and Revlon. Her topic, Requirements for New Raw Materials to be used in the Cosmetic Industry was well researched and presented. The presentation provided a sound overview of the basic requirements to bring a new raw material into the cosmetic industry. In particular, examples presented did a fine job exhibiting regulatory strategies to note for key global markets. Warm thanks again go out to Tanuja for an excellent presentation and educating us on regulatory requirements for new raw materials! With that, I am very excited to announce our annual 2018 Supplier s Social Event on Thursday June 21st at The Fire Museum in Memphis. The Fire Museum is a venue that provides a very nice back drop of history in Fire Education. You will surely enjoy the many interactive presentations available during our social hour. We expect this to be a unique and exciting event I look forward to seeing everyone there, so RSVP early! Cubie Lamb, SCC Southeast Chapter Chair 3
