Get Ready for the 2017 Chapter of the Year Competition
ATTENTION, CHAPTER CHAIRS: The deadline for submitting your Chapter of the Year package to the San Antonio headquarters is rapidly approaching. As you may have noticed, the AFSFA national meeting for 2017 has been moved up to late August, causing us to advance the submission date to July 14, 2017. Given the 2018 meeting is also being planned for late August, we expect the same timeline for next year as well. This will allow sufficient time for judging and award preparation in advance of the national meeting’s closing banquet. Two minor changes have been made to the submission questionnaire, so chapter chairs should reach out to their regional directors or visit the AFSFA website to obtain the latest document. All of the rules and processes remain in place from the 2016 competition. The vice president and regional directors will use the same point scoring system for judging. The board of directors will validate the scores in time for the awards ceremony at the banquet. We apologize in advance, but because of the compressed timeline, late submissions cannot be accepted. As with last year, we know from reading your minutes there are nearly 30 chapters doing great work that needs to be recognized – we Invite you to “take-on” the reigning champion, the Ark-La-Tex Chapter, and the 2016 runner-up, the Oklahoma City Heartland Chapter!
