Artful, even. Just ask the youth at Peterson AFB. Kids at the CDC and the RP Lee Youth Center drew on their experiences on the golf course to create a scene of them and their families having fun playing golf at the new Family Golf Course at Peterson AFB. They did so to participate in an art contest to find the top three pieces of art to be used in March- April issue of GOOD STUFF, the bi-monthly newsletter of the 21st Force Support Squadron. The art contest was a way to both celebrate the Month of the Military Child in April and the start of play this year at the new Family Golf Course. All youth who participated each received goody bags containing a certificate for a free round of golf for them and their family on the Family Golf Course, Silver Spruce Golf Course insulated lunch/beverage bag, Golf 4 Kids towel, golf tees, ENT backpacks and piggy banks, gift certificates from Dairy Queen and ITZ, stickers, and candy. In the teen category, Anna won a free, one-hour golf lesson with video because of her creative entry, which is our cover art for this month; Trinity, in the School Age Program category, and Gabrielle, in the CDC category, each won a beginner set of youth golf clubs. Judging the art were Col Chris Crawford, 21SW Commander, Chief Redman, Kayreen Crawford, Laura Hyten, Heather Donnithorne – all key spouses, and Lois Carlock, Mike Grady and Todd Salzman from Ent Federal Credit Union, 2013 sponsor of the Family Golf Course.

    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel.
