The Hampton Roads Chapter of the American Logistics Association gathered at Red Wing Golf Course in Virginia Beach on Monday, October 19, 2026, for the Chuck Johnson Memorial Golf and Oyster Roast. Morning golf gave way to an afternoon of oysters, lunch, and conversation as colleagues and friends came together for this chapter tradition.

Around the Tables at Red Wing

The oyster roast brought everyone together at the course’s open-air pavilion. Golfers joined lunch guests around tables decorated with fall flowers, sharing a meal and catching up with familiar faces. Between the course, the grill, and the lunch tables, there were plenty of opportunities to reconnect and enjoy the day.

Volunteers kept busy preparing and serving the food, while attendees settled in for lunch and conversation. The pavilion also featured a display of gift baskets, coolers, and other prizes, with participants gathering nearby for photos and a few laughs.

Held in memory of Chuck Johnson, the gathering reflected the friendships that connect our military resale community. The photos capture those moments—from the team at the grill and volunteers along the buffet to smiling groups around the pavilion.
