VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. â The Norfolk Admirals are pleased to announce that Langley Air Force Base has purchased 30 season tickets for the 2002-2003 season.
"This is terrific news," stated Admirals' Director of Operations Todd McKeating. "It just continues to show the tremendous support the Air Force, and all the area military, has for the Admirals and the Hampton Roads community. It also goes a long way to helping us meet our goals. We are very thankful for Langley's generous purchase."
"We are pleased to be able to offer our base personnel and their families a chance to see the Norfolk Admirals," said Audrey Anderson, ITT Director for Langley Air Force Base.
