Discussion started on lack of documentation of AEF missions and role. Not much
information is available on the National AFA website, but the Texas AEF has more
resources.

The foundation needs some organizational work, including bylaws, budget, and some
planning. Mike will look at starting on preparing some bylaws for the AEF.

Dave met with the Command Chief Master Sergeants for AETC and 19 AF, Tampana and Belcer, at Randolph this week to let them know what the AEF does and solicit their ideas.

AEF has some outstanding bills to pay. The Blue Suit dinner will be $10,000. John will
get put on the signature card for the bank and have Erika removed.

Ralph Chalfont has put together a recommended list of scholarships that for the year
ending 30 Sep 2009.

The CPA Vaughn Associates is working on our 2008 tax return.

Lionel will look at the idea of an Air Force Ball for September, sponsored by the AEF.

One issue that needs to be considered for 2010 is the merchant services account for the
bank account so that vendors and sponsors can charge for the symposium/expo. We need
to discuss with the Air Force on who will handle payments/registration for the ball.
