One of the best parts of being involved with State Government Affairs Council is its dedication to help others. In November at its Leaders Policy Conference, the group raised money for Tee It Up for the Troops with a golf tournament.
Problem is I don’t golf. I have tried. I don’t golf. I can drive the golf cart, but to go out on the course…I look like Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack.
Thanks to SGAC and Tee It Up for the Troops we were able to help by bidding on a golf bag. In this case it was a bidding war with Chris Badgley from Daiichi Sankyo until the group offered to throw in another bag if I matched his bid. So, I now have a golf bag.
Tee It Up for the Troops was established in 2005 and has donated nearly $4 million to honor, remember, respect, and support veterans and their families. This past year the group has:
- Assisted more than 22,000 military families, saving families more than $35 million in lodging costs alone, plus food and transportation;
- Helped nearly 4,000 veterans to restore a sense of self, family, and hope;
- Served more than 1,500 of the most severely wounded service members with year-round programs in more than 30 different sports nationwide; and
- Reunited more than 50 wounded veterans who were separated due to battlefield injuries, changes in rehabilitation, or other reasons beyond their control.
State and Federal Communications knows when we team up with others we help make a difference. If you are so inclined, check out www.teeitupforthetroops.org to see how you can help.
Until next month, see what you can do to help others less fortunate.
Thank you,

SGAC’s Leaders’ Policy Conference — It’s the place you want to be!
November 23-26, 2013
The place—Wigwam in Arizona. The year—2000. The event—SGAC’s Leaders’ Policy Conference. I walked in and my professional career was changed forever.
The Leaders’ Policy Conference is produced with the State Government Affairs Council (SGAC) Foundation, NCSL, and CSG as an educational initiative for states’ legislative leadership and state government relations professionals from America’s leading businesses, associations, and service providers. It is designed to encourage dialogue on issues of importance between state legislative leaders and private sector representatives. The public sector includes the legislative leadership from all of the 50 states and U.S. territories, the NCSL and CSG Executive Committees, ALEC’s Board of Directors, and chairs of key committees in the states.
Private sector attendance is for SGAC members only. However, if joining SGAC is on your 2014 bucket list, you can attend as a “prospective” member.
The specifics for the 2013 LPC are the following:
November 23-26, 2013
Turnberry Isle, Miami, Florida
Registration fee is $795 and guests can attend for $295
If you are interested in attending the 2013 Leaders’ Policy Conference, call SGAC at 703-684-0967 and anyone on staff can help you. You can also find additional information at www.sgac.org. In addition, if I can be of any assistance with this event, please do not hesitate to contact me.
In the meantime, remember we are all about relationships and I believe SGAC can assist you in developing those relationships with key leaders in the states.
Thank you,
