Tampa Bay Chapter Wins Award (May 22, 2008)
The Tampa Bay Chapter has been selected as the Southeastern Region International Chapter of the Year (Category I)! They are now eligible for the national award.

The Tampa Bay Chapter distinguished itself throughout 2007/2008 with impressive membership growth leading to a move up Chapter status from I to II. From a start of 60 members after a few short months to a total of 120 in our first full year, has been impressive. It was a total team effort, and the momentum continues. The meetings with some of the most influential Industry and Department of Defense experts have been phenomenal. From DLA, CENTCOM, SOCOM and TRANSCOM to the Under Secretary of Defense for Transportation Policy, our programs have been second to none. We continue to strive to improve upon or goals and keep the valuable programs moving forward. The distinctive accomplishments of the Tampa Bay Chapter of the National Defense Transportation Association is recognized a charter program to emulate. Congratulations to team Tampa Bay!

2nd Annual Golf Tournament (March 1, 2008)
Our 2nd Annual Golf Tournament was held on Friday, February 29th and was another resounding success, raising over $3,300 for our scholarship fund.

We had approximately 50 players attend the tournament at MacDill Air Force Base with morning beverages provided by Starbucks. The formidable team of Hardy Pearson, JP LaCasse with Vince and Andy Laverghetta put their 2007 standing of 2nd Place behind them by finishing first this year.

Upon completion of the 18 holes of golf, all players met back at the clubhouse to claim their raffle prizes and to enjoy a delicious meal courtesy of Carrabbas Italian Grill. We would like to thank those companies that donated items that were used in our raffle: National Air Cargo, United Airlines, T-Mobile, Outback, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Big Cat Rescue. And we would like to recognize those companies who sponsored a hole during the tournament: National Air Cargo, United Airlines, T-Mobile, Publix, IBM, DHL, and AAA Forwarding.

In all, everyone had a wonderful time playing on a beautiful course and the weather couldn't have been more perfect.

Our next tournament will be held Friday, February 6, 2009 so put that date down in your planner so you don't miss out!

Scholarship applications will be distributed to members and their families via email and the chapter’s website in late May. For specific requirements and updated dates, please visit the scholarships page.
