| Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association (AFCEA) is a world-wide association of business men and women working together with members of the Armed Forces to visualize the future technological needs of the next-generation warfighter, to respond to those needs through research and development, and to encourage college-bound young men and women to pursue studies in Math, Science, Engineering, and Information Technology. ENCOURAGEMENT is in the form of SCHOLARSHIPS for deserving students. |
 |
| All AFCEA chapters provide support to AFCEA International Headquarters to award scholarships at the national/international level, and each chapter also awards LOCAL SCHOLARSHIPS, JROTC leadership awards, provides judges and awards at local science fairs, and recognizes teachers instrumental in preparing today's young students for careers in science and engineering. |
|
| To this end the Hampton Roads Chapter of AFCEA holds Annual Golf Classics to support our Scholarship and Awards Fund, and we added over $27,000 to our scholarship fund with the proceeds from our 2007 Golf Classic. Our 19th Annual Golf Classic will be held on Friday, 5 September 2008, at Bide-A-Wee Golf Course, and we expect 192 golfers to participate - we'll have shotgun starts at 7:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. To ensure GENUINE SUCCESS we need more than golfers; we need ADDITIONAL SUPPORT from sponsors like you. |
|
| Your support may be in the form of Tier, Team, Hole, Achievement or Flight sponsorship. You may also consider Door Prize sponsorship by contributing one or multiple gift certificates, e.g.: week-end stays at hotels; airline tickets; tickets to shows, concerts, sporting events, theme parks or movies; golf shirts, sweatshirts, hats, or wind breakers; golf balls; golf clubs; rounds of golf; or other donations of value that may be used as skill prizes for our golfers (see the attached Sponsor Schedule). |
|
| A final form of sponsorship consists of contributing “Goodie-Bag” items to be distributed to all our golfers. It’s our way of saying “Thank You” to the golfers for their participation and it recognizes sponsors with much deserved recognition for their support. Goodie-Bag items may be promotional, or “Logo,” items that range from golf tees w/divot tool or ball marker, to golf towels, to golf balls, to pens or pencils, hats or any useful item that advertises a company’s name. Let your imaginations run wild. All donations are Tax Deductible (see the enclosed Tax Deductible Donation Receipt). |
|
| We would appreciate your participation as a Tier, Team, Hole, Achievement, Flight or Door Prize Sponsor very much. Because AFCEA is a non-profit organization your GENEROSITY translates directly into EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT for deserving young men and women in the Hampton Roads community. AFCEA scholarships help ensure the future scientific and engineering excellence of the United States. We hope you will find some way to invest in that future.
Tier, Team, Hole, Achievement, Flight and Door Prize Sponsors receive special recognition in our tournament promotional literature.

| Thank you in advance for your participation on behalf of future recipients of AFCEA scholarships. | |
