Chapter News

Looking for a new Middle Georgia Chapter President and Vice-president - The time has come for us to elect a new Executive Council.  In accordance with our by-laws, we will vote for the new president and vice president.  After they have been elected, their first duty will be to select a new treasurer and secretary.  I encourage everyone to consider serving in one of these positions; it is a great experience to lead the 2nd largest LOA chapter.

If you or someone you know is interested in running for a position feel free to contact Capt Sam Payne or Capt Mike Sander if any questions.

2008 Scholarship Program - Due to very successful fundraising efforts, the Middle Georgia Chapter was recently able to provided assistance to several deserving Robins AFB personnel.  The Chapter donated $300 towards the Robins AFB Annual Awards winners and also hosted a very successful Scholarship Awards Program. 

Mr Hank Halter, Delta Airlines Senior Vice President, was the Chapter’s guest speaker for the Middle Georgia Chapter Scholarship Program and provided an outstanding briefing on the similarities of Delta Airlines and Air Force Logistics.  He also discussed the challenges of leading a $20 Billion operation along with advice on how Delta has managed its $8 Billion transformation progress to restore profitability with challenges such as record high fuel costs and the recent Delta/Northwest Airlines merger. 

Most importantly, the Chapter selected three scholarship recipients among a very competitive pool of candidates.  Each recipient received a laptop computer, $500 towards college expenses, laptop carrying case, and various LOA merchandise.  In addition to the local awards Ms Nauss and SSgt Sheppard will go on to compete at the LOA National level.  Congratulations to all our nominees and recipients, we are grateful for their contributions to Robins AFB and the logistics community.
