2013 Alabama Wing Conference	01 Jan 2013, 18:53
The Alabama Wing Conference will be held March 15-16, 2013 in Mobile, Alabama. We will have several updates in the morning with a presentation from NHQ on the "NOC and the Future Directions of CAP". This should be a very informative update and give us insight into the new opportunities that CAP will provide to its members in the future. The afternoon will be packed with 12 sessions provided by the various departments of the ALWG including ES, Operations, Communications, CISM, Personnel, Cadets, PD, etc. There will be something for everyone. It will be worth the effort to attend. We have special entertainment this year with lively music and dancing from the Wing Nuts. Several of our CAP members are in the band and they are a "hot item" around central Alabama. We will be providing more background on the group as we get closer to the conference but lets just go on record as saying, "They will bring the house down". It is will fun and everyone will have a good time. Hotel reservations can be made through the link below or by contacting the group housing coordinator, Robert Spencer directly at (251) 338-5382.
