Women in Business, September 2026

Join us for our September Women in Business Luncheon featuring an inspiring panel of women leaders in Augusta’s sports community: Michelle Pippin, CEO of the Augusta Sports Council; Celeste Stewart, AU Women’s Basketball Coach; and Yari Natal, Director of Group Sales for the Augusta GreenJackets. Alicia Fitts, AVP, Business Development & Community Relations for Peach State FCU, will serve as moderator.

The panel will explore leadership, community impact, collaboration, and the powerful role sports play in moving Augusta forward. Attendees will gain insight into each leader’s journey, the growth of Augusta’s sports landscape, and the opportunities that major sporting events and organizations bring to our community—including the upcoming IRONMAN 70.3 Augusta.
