Dear Hokie Club members,

Each member of the Virginia Tech Athletic Fund staff believes that Virginia Tech is one of the premier institutions in the United States. Blacksburg is a special place where higher education and a strong sense of community spirit reside in an uncommonly beautiful place. We strive everyday to fulfill the mission of the Hokie Club in everything that we do. Just as the Virginia Tech Athletics Department is committed to placing the best coaches and student-athletes on the fields and courts of play, we feel that it is our duty to serve you and your interests to the very best of our ability. It is for this reason that we work so diligently with our Hokie Club members and fans to raise money in support of scholarships, facilities and programmatic needs. On behalf of my staff, I would like to thank you for your continued fine support of Virginia Tech Athletics and we look forward to seeing you soon in Blacksburg.
