6 Oil Prophets ASSOCIATE CHAIRMAN'S COMMENTS Make Plans to Attend 2015 Events Keith Chambers Chairman, P&CMA Associate Board Well, spring has sprung! Believe it or not, two of our annual events have already come and gone this year. The winter management trip to Antigua was a success as usual, and all who attended had a great time with food, fellowship, and warm weather! In addition, the inaugural tri-state Food and Fuel Expo in Biloxi was a tremendous success. We had record turnout in both exhibitors and attendees. Along with warmer temperatures, the sunny days tend to put a little pep in everyone's step with the anticipation of outside events, vacations, and such. Consider joining us at the Hilton Sandestin Beach Resort June 28- July 1 for the annual convention. The association also holds our annual draw-down in conjunction with this event. Please contact an associate member today and purchase your draw-down ticket! The scholarship fund has helped numerous deserving young men and women attend college over the years and relies solely on this event for its existence. Thanks to you all for supporting our association! Without each of you, we could not have the success that this association has had throughout history. Please let me know if I or the associate board can be of assistance and remember to purchase your draw- down tickets today!
