HONOR
OUR
VETERANS
Governor's Message Utah Governor Gary R. Herbert
When our forefathers signed the Declaration of Independence 242 years ago, they pledged their loyalty not merely to a document, but to a dream. In doing so, they made a solemn promise to hope for freedom and equality for all and to give everything necessary to achieve it. On this Independence Day, let us reflect on the freedoms we enjoy. Our freedoms are the culmination of the work and vision of patriots and pioneers. For centuries, such freedoms were only the subject of dreams, but they are our reality. Let us protect them. Let us utilize them. As we celebrate, let us remember the sacrifices of those who came before and pay our respects. We honor our brave Military and Veterans today. As we remember the men and women who fight to ensure our liberties and protect our rights, we should solemnly consider what we can do to support them and remember to offer our gratitude. Like our forefathers, let us arise and stand for what is right, and let us continue to work to make the world a better place. May God bless the State of Utah, and may God bless America. 

Hill Air Force Base
H
ILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah — For years, the Hill Aerospace Museum has been a “must-see” attraction in northern Utah. More than 265,000 visitors a year tour the museum’s airpark and indoor galleries spanning 30-acres. Now, one of the largest travel sites on the web is saying the same. The website Trip Advisor, a site dedicated to travelrelated content and visitor reviews, recognized the Hill Aerospace Museum last month with its Hall of Fame award for receiving the site’s Certificate of Excellence five years in a row. The site issues the certificates to establishments based on continued excellence in hospitality and people who provided reviews on Trip Advisor ranked the Hill Aerospace Museum as the number one place to visit in the region. Aaron Clark, the museum’s director, said he’s elated to receive the recognition and credited the museum’s professional staff for staying focused on customer service, its collection and exhibits, care of the museum grounds and facility, and encouraging community involvement. “We have and will continue to listen to our customers,” Clark said. Since becoming the museum director in 2013, the museum has shifted to developing engaging exhibits that show the rich history of Hill Air Force Base and Utah aviation. Clark said the museum’s grounds, facility and collection are cared for by dedicated staff and volunteers. In addition, the Aerospace Heritage Foundation of Utah is a private, non-profit organization that provides capital support for the museum.

“We have federal employees, volunteers, and a foundation all working together. This award is a direct testament to their selfless efforts,” Clark said. “Museums are about community, and we have and will continue to involve numerous community members in our operations.” Recognition aside, Clark said the museum isn’t finished with making improvements. The museum is nearing completion of an interactive “C-130 experience” classroom where visitors will be able to climb into the cockpit and learn more about the long and diverse history of the aircraft. The exhibit will also be used as a classroom where the museum will offer programs focused on STEM (science, technology, engineering and math.) Other recent additions to the museum include a new Utah Aviation Hall of Fame, a display dedicated to Hill’s namesake Maj. Ployer B. Hill, an F-16 Thunderbird static display, and an aerospace education center with four classrooms. Clark said the Aerospace Heritage Foundation of Utah is continually fundraising for new exhibits and programs. Plans are underway for construction of a third gallery that will house all the aircraft currently on display outside the museum. The museum is open from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. MondaySaturday. Admission is free. Visit:

Veterans on Course
U
tah Golf Foundation’s Veterans on Course Schedule Set for 2018
Entrada at Snow Canyon Country Club – Tuesday, November 13th
MILLCREEK, UTAH – Following back-to-back seasons of overwhelming growth, the Utah Golf Foundation looks forward to another successful year of Veterans on Course (VOC) events. With 11 VOC events scheduled throughout the state of Utah, the UGF expects the 2018 season to be nothing short of incredible.
The First Tee of Utah will continue supporting the Veterans on Course program by serving as the Vets Club Depot, a receipt and distribution location offering donated golf equipment to Veterans new to the game. The First Tee of Utah’s office is located at Golf The Round, 680 West 3300 South in Salt Lake City. Donations are accepted during office hours, weekdays 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Vets Club Depot equipment will be available at each VOC event.
Veterans on Course, a program open to male and female Military personnel of active or Veteran status, was started in 2016 by the Utah Golf Foundation as a pilot program to provide instruction and playing opportunities to Military personnel of all ages and skill levels free of charge. Each event consists of lessons from PGA Professionals, a nine-hole scramble tournament and a social gathering with hors d’oeuvres and a guest speaker.
As a registered 501(c)(3) corporation, all donations to the Utah Golf Foundation (UGF) are tax deductible. Donations can be made at utahgolffoundation.org. Your donations support the continuing work of the UGF’s Veterans on Course and Utah Youth on Course programs. Without your contributions, the UGF would be unable to fulfill its mission and purpose to financially support programs expanding opportunity and access to those who wish to play golf in Utah.
The 2016 inaugural VOC season included four events, all of which filled to maximum capacity. Due to the program’s awe-inspiring success, the 2017 schedule was comprised of nine events throughout Utah. More than 600 Military Veterans participated. In 2018, 11 events will be hosted from Logan to St. George, with an expectation of nearly 800 participants.
For more information about the Utah Golf Foundation and its Veterans on Course initiative, visit utahgolffoundation.org, or call UGF Program Director Megan Huntsman at 385-347-5009.
The following VOC events will open for registration at utahgolffoundation.org one month prior to each event date:
About the Utah Golf Foundation: The Utah Golf Foundation (UGF), the 501(c)(3) nonprofit affiliate of the Utah Golf Association, administers Veterans on Course and Utah Youth on Course. As the only statewide charitable foundation in Utah solely devoted to the game of golf, the UGF was established in 1989 and reestablished itself as its own entity in 2014 to provide individuals access to the game of golf and contributions to programs and organizations that help grow the game.

Veterans Business Conference
F
our years ago, the Veteran-Owned Business Partnership was created to ensure that Veterans have the best business resources available at their fingertips. One of those resources was the annual Veterans Business Conference held on May 11th this year. All-Star NBA player, business owner, and motivational speaker, Mark Eaton, was the keynote and spoke on topics in his recent book The Four Commitments of a Winning Team. The conference was attended by 132 Veterans, 35 percent of which were in their first two years of business. The business resource partners came together to help Veterans understand what help is available to them and strategies to help them grow and experience more success. Topics included business plans, common legal issues, funding opportunities, government contracting, taxes, and many other applicable subjects.

Vet Finds Support to Land Dream Job through Workforce Services
I
n February 2018, David J. Davis visited the Department of Workforce Services Employment Center in Lehi, Utah, to receive help finding a job. David had served in the U.S. Army from March 1996 until March 2016, when he was honorably discharged with his E-7 Sergeant First Class rank. He was initially trained as a Heavy Wheel Mechanic, where he served his first five years. He was subsequently trained at the Defense Language Institute (DLI) as a French Linguist to work in Army Intelligence, where he spent the rest of his service. David served multiple tours including in Kosovo and Iraq. The tours in Iraq were part of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Hal Hooper, a Veteran Employment Representative at the employment center, checked David’s eligibility for job search help with the Disabled Veterans Outreach Program (DVOP). After completing the initial eligibility check, Hal met with David to scan his verification documents and complete the assessment. Hal helped David develop an employment plan, and provide labor market information training, job search strategies, resume enhancement, job
10
and informational interviewing and networking methodologies. David needed additional help with resume building, networking and developing his interviewing skills, so Hal referred David to Mike Hanley, a Work Success Coach at the Lehi Employment Center. Hal helped David identify places to improve his job seeker registration and resume. David made the recommended changes to increase his likelihood of getting a job. He was soon asked to interview in a short amount of time and was successfully hired by Teleperformance in Sandy, Utah. David currently works as a customer service representative, and makes $16 per hour plus commissions, with an opportunity for income growth and job advancement. David enjoys his job and using his computer and communication skills and says it is going very well. 
