AUVSI Louisiana Pelican has hit the ground running since its formation. Lead by a stellar leadership team, the Chapter has held regular meetings, participates in community activities, particularly with STEM, and is active with state advocacy. They are planning to hold their own State Advocacy Day in May 2017, partnering with Aerospace States Association (ASA). All of their activities have clearly paid off, as their Chapter membership increased by 48% this past year, and will no doubt continue to rise.
