Next Meeting
Our next meeting is one of the highlights of the year, the Bald Eagle Day and Crawfish Boil. The event is scheduled for Saturday the 7th of May. We start at the regular time and plan on eating between 11 and noon. John B is preparing the crawfish and shrimp. There will be hamburgers for those so inclined or as appetizers to the real eaters. We will be asking for the regular 10$ donation for adults while young people eat free. Drinks, ice, and fixings will be provided. Salads, desserts will be appreciated and consumed. Seating may be at a premium so I suggest bringing a lawn chair. Bill said that several Boy Scouts (8) will be joining us between noon and 1 o’clock. They are working on their aviation merit badge and would appreciate a YE ride since I think an airplane ride is one of the requirements. I’m sure we can work something out.
Other News of Interest
High wind and low ceiling seems to be the order of the day lately. We got a reminder last week of how bad the wind can get. This is especially serious if your airplane is exposed to the wind. Wayne sent an email to the group in Monroe giving us a wakeup on securing airplanes and other objects in the tee hangars. I’m reconsidering a few things.
Hope you can make it to the Bald Eagle Day/Crawfish Boil.
