NICE FEEDBACK ON NATCA ADS AT NATIONALS PARK : We received some good
feedback last week from Washington Center member Pete Berry about our advertising
efforts with the Washington Nationals – " Thought I would share this interaction I had with
someone in Sta rbucks the other day on my way into ZDC. I was wearing a NATCA shirt
and a guy came up to me and asked if I worked for NATCA. He wanted to let me know
that he hears those commercials on the radio and at the ballpark and thinks that they are
really great an d effective. Not a pilot or a politician, just Joe Q. Public. I told him than ks
and I would pass it along."
