From the Desk
of the
President & CEO
It is crazy to think we are only a few days away from October.  September was another great month of providing programs which included 2 Security Forces Appreciation Events, a Marriage Retreat in Sedona for Luke Families, a Single Airmen Event and many other small functions and strategic planning for facility projects and the 2022 Air Show!!!  We are really excited to share with you our plans for the future and how you can be involved...which has been very difficult for all of us lately.  As we continue to work with Leadership at Luke to deliver programs and services geared towards Morale & Well-Being and Culture & Tradition, we also want to thank our partners for the support they provide to create these successful outcomes in September.  In September, a big THANK YOU to JE Dunn and Kirk McClure, Nova Home Loans and Jason Smith, USAA, AROK and Brian Cooper, Southern Glazier Wine & Spirits and Bill Dunkle and Venn Construction and Stephanie Fogelson & John Pierson. 


In November Veronique, Brooke and I can't wait to join you all in Tucson as we meet our DM 50 and Davis Monthan Leadership counterparts and learn about their missions within our Air Force and enjoy an Air Show practice.  I don't know if we will see each other in October as a group, but we can definitely maximize the experience in early November!!!
