PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Last week we welcomed Jeff Price via virtual meeting as we learned more about the Jacksonville Port Authority and how it assists in making Jacksonville a global shipping hub.

I want to thank everyone who came out to the flag retirement ceremony or provided flags to be retired. It was a great event that the JROTC students were extremely happy to help us execute.

Remember, our club is more than just our meetings and we look forward to seeing you at our upcoming Member Hangouts and other community building events.

Please join me at our next meeting when we welcome Bob Ohrablo.

Brandon Stanko

2021 President
