AEA had a great semester, and an even better start to the summer. We want to continue thanking those who support us.



AEA gained admittance to CGI U 2013. Angela Oxford (above) gave AEA $2860.00 as an award after getting invited to attend the CGI U meeting this Spring. With this donation from the university, a majority of the costs toward building the water tower foundation were accounted for.

Here is a photo of the AEA members who were representatives at the CGI U 2013 meeting:



From this experience, AEA led a strong semester. As soon as it as over, though, several of its members were off to Belize to impliment a new water tower foundation. (Because of AEA's focus on safety, a new foundation will be used, replacing the old one, so that the water tower will be able to withstand hurricane-force winds.)

As one can see, during preparation for the new foundation, AEA needed some heavy machinery:


The foundation's hole was dug, and the rebar prepared:



After putting up the plywood and rebar, the cement truck showed up. The hole was quickly filled, and our job was done.
