The Arlington County Civic Federation is pleased to announce that Col. Kimberly Peeples, Commander of Joint Base Myer Henderson Hall (JBM-HH), will be our featured speaker at the 2019 ACCF Annual banquet on Friday, April 5. For the first time, the annual CivFed banquet will be held in the Koran Room at JBM-HH Patton Hall, formerly the Fort Myer Officers Club. As a pitch perfect note to the banquet, plans are to have members of “Pershing’s Own,” the prestigious U.S. Army Band, provide music during the banquet’s social hour starting at 6 p.m. The banquet and program follow at 7 p.m.
“Col. Peeples and JBM-HH are wonderful neighbors to invite the Civic Federation to celebrate our 103rd anniversary at their ‘home,’” said CivFed President Duke Banks. “And we are particularly delighted that Col. Peeples’ speech will focus on the many ways that the command has been an important neighbor and friend to Arlington County.” To learn more about Col. Peeples use this link.
