President’s Column – 5/2025

Our Chapter is on the move.

Our Huntsville Academy Alumni have two opportunities to re-connect with Board members and each other on May 13 and May 22. You can find details in this Newsletter.

By the time you read this our Elder Fraud Team will have presented a Fraud and Scams Conference in Arley, serving Walker and Winston counties (Smith Lake area) and the Huntsville Academy Class will be half-way through with 31 prospective Alumni Members. Their Graduation is June 3rd.

The Birmingham Fall Class is still accepting nominations through June 30th. Please be thinking of friends you can share this opportunity with and get them involved.

Please mark your calendar to save the date of July 24 for our First Annual Class Reunion of all graduates! It will be held at Birmingham HQ 3:30PM- 7:30PM and optional dinner after at a local restaurant. You’ll get a VIP update and hear from our FBI team on the latest information and tour ( kind of a mini- Academy). Look for more information coming soon!

Teen Academy is coming to HQ July 9-11. You can share information to possible candidates so they can register. We will also need Members to come visit and briefly share your experience in serving our community through the CAAA. We will be providing lunch to the students all three days.

And…our Annual FBI Redstone Campus Tour is coming in October. It’s a highlight for all of us and plan on being on that bus!

Lots happening and more to come.

Have a wonderful May!
