Just want to reiterate what Chef Troy said. Outstanding conference! As you all know by now I have a huge amount of pride in what I do for a living, both as a chef and a member of the military. But I now have even more to be proud of as a member and board member of the best damn ACF Chapter in the USA!

Sure, us chefs did alot, but thats what we do. The real credit goes to our junior members. What an amazing, amazing group! I am so very proud to be associated with you. For those of you that got the opportunity to appretentice with the military you are a credit to our chapter. You would not believe the shear amount of praise that these seasoned chefs had for your drive and skill set; be proud!

Thank You and I am humbled to be in your chapter.
