PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
We had a great meeting last week with guest speaker Amanda Videll, Public Information Officer for Jacksonville's FBI office located on Gate Parkway. Amanda gave an overview of the agency's mission and priorities which include economic espionage, counter-terrorism and cyber attacks. We learned that this region's FBI division is the fastest growing in the country (based on population growth) and that the FBI has an international presence comprised of 90 offices in foreign countries.
Yesterday our club celebrated the 5th Annual YAP JROTC Charity Clay Shoot. We had a blast while raising money for our scholarship program.
We'll see you next Wed with our guest speaker Jerry Holland, Duval County Property Appraiser. Plus, we'll being hosting our monthly Table Talk networking session.
See you Wednesday,
Steve DeSorbo
2018 President
