Chapter of the Year

Discussions regarding the Chapter’s selection as the National Chapter of the Year ensued. The Chapter will receive the award at the upcoming AFA National Convention. Our Chapter was selected from over 200 AFA Chapters. We were also selected for Best Communications Chapter. Fox 21 recently covered the Chapter’s selection and the Chapter received a congratulatory letter from General Hyten, AFSPC Commander. During the meeting, the letter was presented by Mr. Mike Pierson AFSPC Public Affairs to Linda Aldrich and our honored guest, Ms. Jeanine Sijan whose brother is the Chapter’s namesake.
