February 2010
The New Jersey Post is off to a great year! We successfully held our first meeting of the year jointly with the Philadelphia Post at McGuire AFB. Presentations were given by Captain Andy Butterfield, USN and Christopher Archer, Deputy Base Civil Engineer. Thank you to both gentlemen for your time to address our group! The presentations focused on the new joint base organization, projects, and upcoming contract opportunities.
There will be a lot more opportunities to continue to develop and enhance relationships among the A-E-C community in New Jersey. Our program schedule for 2010 is a packed one! We will be back at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst for our Annual Regional Contracting Opportunities program which will present the opportunity for our members to exhibit, network, and learn of projects, programs, and contract opportunities throughout our region. Save the date for this program–Thursday, April 15 at Club Dix.
