This is our Front Page which I use for announcements of pending events. This will show up at the top of the website home page whenever I make any of it visible. I use a CSS class created to hide paragraphs and images that I want to keep for possible reuse but don’t want them to show up on the home back unless needed. I apply “chattabama_hide_section” to the ADDITIONAL CSS CLASS(ES) for each section I want to hide (including this one)
It’s that time again and we hope you are as excited about it as we are!!
It is time to sign up to play in our 29th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament.
As you know, this is one of our biggest events every year and always draws great participation.
It is a wonderful day of golf but also a great support for our scholarship efforts. All the money from this event goes to our 4 endowed scholarships that ultimately help students from the Greater Chattanooga area attend The University of Alabama!!
Player registration fee includes green fees, lunch & dinner, range balls and goody bags!
We hope you’ll join us.

Million Dollar Band Stopover
An important message from the President of BamaChattanooga Alumni chapter regarding the traditional band stop over in Chattanooga on the third Friday of October:
The Million Dollar Band is over 400 member strong but is only taking a 50-member pep band to away games this season, which is disappointing news for many of us who look forward to seeing and hearing the MDB on the road.
In the past, we’ve been fortunate enough to entice the band to make a stop the day before the game, complete with a marked field for them to practice on and lunch on Bama Chattanooga. Unfortunately, with the 1/4 band now traveling later on Friday, it simply didn’t work out with their schedule and itinerary this year.
From my personal perspective, this is another example of how the ever-increasing demands of the NIL era are putting pressure on budgets across the entire athletic department. As we all know, football revenue helps fund the Million Dollar Band and virtually every other sport at Alabama, with the exception of men’s basketball.
Make no mistake, the MDB is just as disappointed as we are. They love representing the University of Alabama and bringing the spirit of the Tide to fans everywhere.
Hopefully, we’ll find a way to make it happen again down the road. Roll Tide!

Board Meeting
Everyone is Welcome
We are holding a Board meeting on Thursday August 7th 5:30 pm at Rib and Loin, 5946 Brainerd Rd.
Note: Future meetings may be held at watch party site or another restaurant that will provide a private room. Any suggestions? Speaking of watch parties, Jill Greblick will be covering that agenda item.
The primary agenda item is The Golf Tournament. This is our number one fund raising event so please attend. While board members cover agenda items, make motions and vote, board meetings in general are open to all current Chapter members. If an attendee is not a current member, no worries, $25/$35 at the meeting will fix that minor technicality.
Come break bread with the ChattaBamaly!
Greetings Bama Chattanooga!
The main purpose of this letter is to notify the Bama Chattanooga Board of Directors and members at large that we have a meeting coming up on Wednesday January 7th at Ankar’s Hoagies on Brainerd Rd. For those unfamiliar with the location it’s in the same general location as the restaurant where we have held the previous meetings.
Please take a moment to put this on your calendar.
Thank you and Roll Tide!!!
Karl Sodergren
