We're kicking off the 2026–2027 AD2 Austin year by connecting with the larger AAF community! 🙌

Some of our board recently traveled to Dallas for AAF District 10 Club Officer Training, where we joined fellow AAF club leaders from across Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana.

The day was all about coming together, sharing ideas, and preparing for the year ahead, and we're excited to bring those conversations and connections back to our AD2 Austin community.

As we begin a new year, we're looking forward to creating more opportunities for our members to connect, grow, learn, and get involved!
