We’re into June as I write this and we continue to have many great successes in 2010, of which you all can be proud. The biggest news is that a group of us from the Oklahoma City Post were in Atlanta on May 5 at the 2010 National SAME Joint Engineer Training Conference and accepted, on behalf of ALL of you, the Top 2009 Medium Post Flag from Lt. General Robert Van Antwerp in front of over 1,000 attendees! It was a proud moment in the history of the Oklahoma City Post! What a terrific honor to have won Top Medium Post for 2009 out of 36 medium-sized posts throughout the world!
Great support for our many post-sponsored and post-supported efforts in 2010 has continued as well. On Saturday, May 1st, many SAME Oklahoma City Post members helped on this year’s Rebuilding Together house. Thank you to the many volunteers supporting this worthwhile endeavor!
Some projected future events for your calendar – the annual SAME Oklahoma City Post Golf Tournament is scheduled for October 8th at Kickingbird Golf Course. We will be looking for hole sponsors and donations for prizes over the next few months. As always, we appreciate the great support for this worthwhile scholarship money-raising event! We are working details for a Young Member get-together in late summer, tentatively scheduled for the Bricktown Ballpark; more details will be forthcoming.
Our quarterly newsletters continue to be extremely informative and well-received by our membership. Our goal is to continue to issue newsletters quarterly to our members, which creates opportunities for our sustaining member firms who may wish to advertise open job positions or accomplishments such as contract awards in our newsletter at no charge (assuming no elaborate web designing required – only pasting basic information into our newsletter as received) – please send items of interest to Mike Moe (michael.b.moe@saic.com) by early July for publication in the third quarterly newsletter of 2010!
As a reminder, after making a reservation for a luncheon meeting please be sure to attend or send a substitute in your place if something comes up so that we don’t have to send out a “no show” invoice, which we really do not want to do. Regrettably, however, we are charged for every meal we make a reservation for – therefore, in fairness to our luncheon sponsors and all our SAME member friends, please send a substitute if you are unable to make a meeting for which you have a reservation.
If you have any comments or suggestions pertaining to any of our proposed activities during the last seven months of 2010, please don’t hesitate to contact me at any time at jeffery.kindschuh@us.af.mil , or feel free to contact any of our other officers or Board members at any time as well.
I hope you will choose to participate in a future SAME function again soon, including our many exciting forthcoming luncheons!
Regards, Jeff Kindschuh President, Oklahoma City Post |
