November Meeting


The Purchasing World of Viejas

Speaker: Larry Chapp, Senior Director of Purchasing at Viejas

Come and enjoy a great buffet dinner and enter the fun, fast & fascinating world of casino purchasing! Larry Chapp, Senior Director of Purchasing at Viejas, will tell us about the type of goods and services his department is responsible for buying. Learn how surveillance cameras are disguised and placed, what unique challenges the buyers are faced with, where they learn their unique skills and many other differences between the standard manufacturing environment and the rest of the wide world of purchasing!

When you enter the casino go to the buffet and tell them you are with the purchasing group. You will be directed to a glassed in room at the back of the buffet. Our meeting will kick off with the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a few announcements. Then everyone can select from the awesome buffet all the food you can eat. Larry’s talk will follow dinner and he promises to be done in plenty of time for you to shop for Christmas gifts at the outlets across the street or to take in the sights and fun of the casino. See you there!

NAPM-San Diego's dinner meetings are held the second Tuesday of every month. Locations vary to accommodate the diverse locations of our members, so be sure to scroll down to read about our current meeting or check the future schedule for meetings to come. Remember that you do not have to be a member to come and join us!

General Information

Reservations are required.....kindly reserve your seat online or by phone, fax or mail.

The following details apply to all members and non-members planning to attend one of our meetings:

  • Price: With reservations $28 for members $35.00 for non-members
    At the door $35.00
  • Cancellations: Any member/non member who fails to attend after having made a reservation, and has not cancelled by 4:00 PM on the Friday prior to the dinner meeting, will be invoiced $30.00 for the cost of the dinner.

    Due to the fact that NAPM-SD has to pay the full price of each guaranteed dinner (we give a count on Friday), it has become necessary to charge the full price to the member/non member that fails to attend after making a reservation. It is not fair to the general membership to subsidize costs of dinners.

  • Non-Sufficient Funds fee: There will be a $20 fee for any check that is returned for
    non-sufficient funds.
