June 2010 - As the lazy days of summer roll in to town, let’s all take a moment to get excited about our workload letting up, our responsibilities getting easier, and figuring out what to do with all of our new idle time, right?

Well, while the season of sizzle is synonymous with longer days allowing us to squeeze in more cookouts, parties, concerts, vacations and holidays, the constant demand for our time will likely persist. But wouldn’t it be great if we could MAKE more time?...

October 2009 – GA-AHMP held its second annual charity golf tournament in the Piedmont foothills of Hampton, Georgia. This year, we raised $2,000 to begin a chapter scholarship fund. An educational scholarship will be awarded to a deserving candidate in 2010.

If you would like to sponsor, attend, or help organize the 2010 tournament, please email David Wheeler at dwheeler@greenleafgroup.net.

March 2009 – GA-AHMP approved a sponsorship opportunity to benefit the construction of an environmentally-focused walking trail adjacent to a local elementary school. GA-AHMP’s $250 contribution was used to help complete the loop trail and in return the GA-AHMP name will be posted on an individual support sign located along the trail. In addition, members of GA-AHMP spoke to the school’s students about environmental awareness during the 2009-2010 school year.
 
September 2008 – GA-AHMP held its inaugural charity golf tournament in the Piedmont foothills of north Georgia. As the picture perfect day unfolded, the tournament benefited the Captain Planet Foundation which funds and supports hands-on, environmental projects for children and youths.

After a morning round of 18 holes, participants were treated to a delicious buffet lunch before the awards ceremony. It was during this ceremony, that GA-AHMP presented Ira Blumenthal, President of Captain Planet Foundation, with a donation of $5,000. Our sincere thanks go out to those individuals that were instrumental in organizing this event, our corporate sponsors that financially supported this cause, and the tournament attendees for your contributions that made the day a complete success.
