Real ID Update
DHS has again extended the Real ID deadline. We will see if this will still pertains to entering military bases. Please let your members know the deadline has been extended to 2025. However, we need to enforce the message that it is beneficial to people to renew their license and obtain a REAL ID compliant form of identification. Failure to have one by 2025 will result in denied boarding of commercial aircraft.
Hello to all our wonderful OVBTA Members and Friends!
If you haven’t already registered for our Q4 meeting, please do so as soon as possible! We plan on ending the year with our most rewarding meeting yet!
Your Sponsorship committee elves have been hard at work securing some incredible items for this year’s silent auction! There is no better way to support the chapter while scoring some incredible items to bring an added level of cheer to your holidays.
The auction will begin at 6:00 PM EST on Monday, December 1st! This means if you plan on attending the reception you will get an in-person reminder to start bidding. Hope to see you there! A polite reminder that, even if you are already registered for Tuesday's meeting, we kindly ask that you to register separately for Monday evening's complimentary networking reception here.
The auction will close at 1:00 PM the following day during our meeting so we can announce the winners before we head back to the workshop. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE PRESENT TO WIN but isn’t it more fun when you are?
To give you a sneak peek into our bag of gifts here are a few items you could walk away with:
- Airline ticket donated by Direct Travel
- Round Trip Airline tickets brought to you by Delta Air Lines, Southwest & United Airlines.
- Baskets from BCD Travel, Texas Roadhouse, Indianapolis International Airport & many more!
