TORRANCE, CA - AFLA's June issue of its e-mail newsletter, Spec Sheet, includes the association's fourth Time Capsule video interview - a video series exploring the history of AFLA.

The June 2009 Time Capsule video featured Helene Kamon, vice president of sales & marketing for AmeriFleet and AFLA's first female president (1988-89). Kamon discusses AFLA's history, the current state of the automotive industry, and her experience as the first female president of AFLA. Kamon was interviewed by Mark Conroy, vice president of sales & marketing at Union Leasing and AFLA past president (2006-07).

Cited by fleet professionals as the "must-attend" event this year, the 2009 AFLA conference will be held Sept. 9-11, 2009 at the Arizona Biltmore Resort in Phoenix.

Last year, a record of nearly 300 attendees participated in the 2008 40th Annual Meeting and Conference at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa in Phoenix. One conference highlight was the first Fleet Hall of Fame Awards ceremony presented by former AFLA President Elsie Lucia and Ed Bobit of Bobit Business Media. Ten industry veterans were selected by peers and inducted in a ceremony during the conference, in addition to 20 industry founders automatically inducted into the Fleet Hall of Fame.
