By Chris Collins, Deputy DirectorDLA Aviation’s Customer Operations Directorate

                RICHMOND, Va.  –              
Defense Logistics Agency Aviation’s Customer Operations Directorate held an organization picnic at Defense Supply Center Richmond, Virginia’s Parker Pond, May 25. More than 200 directorate employees turned out for a town hall and opportunity to enjoy some good food provided by directorate supervisors and leadership teams, play fun games, and take time to join in camaraderie and team building.

The town hall was highlighted by observance of several personal recognitions such as junior non-commissioned officer, company grade officer, and field grade officer of the quarter awards, medium and large team member awards, three 35-year service awards, and one 40-year service award.

“This event was a way for our leadership team to say thank you to our local employees and come together for the first time in this large of a group in several years.” Willison said.  “The turn-out was fantastic, our leadership team had fun putting this on, and it appears our employees had fun.”

Festivities included plenty of food, corn hole, lawn-sized beer pong (minus the beer), and card games at several tables.
