Congratulations to the AGA Virginia Peninsula Chapter for being awarded the Platinum 2021 Achievement in Chapter Excellence Award.
The objective of the Achievements in Chapter Excellence (ACE) Awards is to support, encourage and promote AGA's mission, and to provide flexible guidelines to help the development of a well-rounded chapter.
AGA VA Pen would like to thank our membership, our volunteers and our CEC. We could not have done any of this without your tireless efforts!
"It does not get any better than Platinum in AGA's world!" Kelly Stefanko - 2020-2021 Chapter President
The award was presented virtually this year, and Kelly Stefanko received the award on behalf of our chapter. The Virginia Peninsula Chapter has earned Platinum Level Status every year (except 2020) since 2006. This is the 15th year for our chapter to receive this top honor!!

What is the Chapter Recognition Program?
The Chapter Recognition Program (CRP) is a framework for chapters, that if followed, can result in a well-rounded chapter program each year. This non-competitive program consists of eight areas: Chapter Leadership, Education, Certification, Communications, Membership/Early Careers, Accountability, Community Service and Awards. Credits for various activities in each category are entered quarterly into an online reporting system by a chapter representative, typically the Chapter President-Elect. Chapters that meet and exceed their goals are recognized each year at AGA’s annual PDT.
