Hello Friends & Colleagues,
This summer the Organization of Black Airline Pilots (OBAP) will hold 2 Aviation Career Education Camps sponsored by Delta Air Lines.
The purpose of each one-week program is to introduce interested youth to the world of aviation by exposing them to the many challenging careers and opportunities which the aviation industry has to offer.
This is a program that I've been involved in for several years and I'm extremely passionate about it and what it does for children. Please take the time to read the brochure/application and pass it along to anyone that you know who may be interested. Go to: www.acecamps.org.
The age range is for boys and girls between 14-18 years old. The best part of the camp other than the exposure is that it is FREE!!!!
Delta Air Lines pays the entire cost.
Thanks for spreading the word,
Michael Gaillard, Delta Air Lines
Atlanta ACE Camp Director of Admissions

Congrats Foshay Robotics Team!
Message from Regina Boutte:
I am very happy to report that the LAUSD District 7 Foshay’s Robotic Team 597 represented YOU very well in Hawai’i for the FIRST Robotic Regional. Not only were we the most attractive and courteous team competing, we walked away with the 2nd highest overall award.
The Chairman’s Award was presented to Team 359 from Hawaii, established in 2000. We were awarded the 2008 Engineering Inspiration Award, which celebrates outstanding success in advancing respect and appreciation for engineering and engineers within a team’s school and community. We won the 2008 Website Award, which recognizes excellence in student-designed, built, and managed FIRST team websites…please visit us at www.team597.net.
We were recognized during the awards ceremony as one of the top teams (actually the runner-up) for the Underwriters Laboratories Industrial (ULI) Safety Award that celebrates the team that progress beyond safety fundamentals by using innovative ways to eliminate or protect against hazards. Each member of the team was presented an ULI Safety Pin. In addition to practicing safety in the pit area and on the field, team members campaigned for breast cancer awareness and shared pink ribbons, website information, data and clothing with other teams, the judges and spectators supplied by Privacy Wear (www.privacywear.com), one of the team’s sponsors.
Let’s not forget our robot, Neptune. The team accumulated enough points and qualified for the Finals!!! A few weeks ago, while competing in San Diego for the Robotics Regional, March 6th -8th, the team also won the 2008 Website Award and special recognition from the Underwriters Laboratories.
The Team will compete in the FIRST Robotic Championship in Atlanta April 16th - 19th.
Sincerely,
