News


We have a new feature available through our web site - an online Hokie Business Directory for the Fredericksburg area. We don't have many businesses listed yet, but we hope the directory will grow as more people find out that it is available.
 
If you're a Hokie (or related to a Hokie) and want to get your business listed, the "how to" information is on the directory web page. We are planning for this to be free during a trial period, and then possbily cost $25 a year. This would support our scholarship fund and other chapter activities.


The Fredericksburg Area Chapter of the VTAA is pleased to award eight $1000 scholarships to area students who will be attending Virginia Tech as freshmen in the fall of 2012. These outstanding high school seniors were chosen from the 40 eligible candidates who applied.
