Get this history lesson first hand – call or email Brad Wright with your attendance now!
DIRECTIONS to Wesley Woods from Atlanta: Take
Interstate 85 to Exit 51, Sharpsburg-McCollum Road. Future (2010) Meetings: At least six! Set your goal for a 2010 perfect attendance record! Remember “EMTTu” (Even Month Third Tuesday) * With one exception – because the 3rd Tue in Dec would be too close to Christmas, we are moving that meeting a week earlier to Tue, 14 DEC. Now, mark your calendars! 20 APR; 15 JUN; 17 AUG; 19 OCT; 14 DEC* In an effort to accommodate Flight member’s transportation concerns, we plan to have one “south-side” and one “north-side” meeting in 2010. This will also support our on-going effort to get those “Lost Wingmen” rejoined into our Flight. The other reasons are obvious – it’s just for you! We will also try to mix it up with both lunches and dinners. So, no excuses…, Just Do It!
If you have any ideas or suggestions for meetings and/or guest speakers, contact our Guest Speaker Committee: Mack Secord / 404.252.3861/msecord@comcast.net Meanwhile, start preparing your presentation! That’s right, you could be our next speaker. You might not think so, but your military experiences would be most interesting to your fellow Flight members. Start putting your thoughts together now. If you need help with automation, typing, or slide making, ask a Flight Officer for help. Eventually, we want our members to “carry” their story to all the meetings. One night we might just draw a name out of the hat to determine our ‘next’ guest speaker. Start writing your notes now! |
