Our June 12, 2008 meeting was hosted by Robert Mayfield at the Tenaska Virginia Generating Station. Robert, who is a member of our Base and the Plant Manager at Tenaska, also hosted us last April. We had a pretty good turnout of members and spouses and Robert provided dinner, tours and a slide show. THANKS ROBERT!!

Before our abbreviated meeting we were joined briefly by Nancy Miner, a reporter for The Central Virginian, who interviewed Base Commander Kenn McDermott and Vice Commander Mike Martin. After some technical struggling Kenn was able to capture the on-line article written by Nancy as it originally appeared in the June 19, 2008 edition of the paper. Scroll down to read it in case you don't get this particular paper. Robert also scanned the article and e-mailed it as an Adobe PDF shortly after it appeared in the paper - thanks again Robert and thank you Nancy!!
