Esteemed SATAI Members,
I would like to thank everyone who attended the January 2024 SATAI Conference. I am honored to begin a two-year term as your SATAI President. Justin Brink has agreed to be my Vice President. Our goal is to continue growing SATAI’s position as a place of knowledge and sharing. The conference facilitated networking and socializing following the hard work and camaraderie of the Crash Days. All members, whether they attended or not, have access to the current and past motorcycle crash and vehicle crash test data.
I had the pleasure of following the great example set by Jon Balasa. Thank you for everything you did during the past two years. Your efforts and preparation for the conferences are a large part of its success.
SATAI will continue to make every effort to provide two conferences per year and one crash test day. While the Glendale, Arizona, location has proven to be a reliable and suitable venue, we are always looking for alternative locations that could suit our needs. If you have any suggestions for locations, conference topics, or instructors, please email me (tyoder@glendaleaz.com).
SATAI is a participating organization of ACTAR (actar.org) and we are committed to hosting at least one ACTAR examination per year. Our conferences are approved for Continuing Education Units necessary for accreditation renewal.
We are a non-profit organization that relies upon its membership. Our largest expenses go toward the conferences and supplies for crash days. If you or your company has a vehicle that could be used for future crash testing, please contact a board member.
Thank you again for your support by being a member.
Yours,
Ted Yoder
SATAI President
