We had a good meeting on Tuesday, although it was a tad windy! Thanks to all who braved the elements & came out to the field.

Since the last meeting, we have had the Mel Trotter Display, TAG & Veteran’s Fly-In. Mel Trotter & Tag went well, but the vet’s event, well, let’s just say I had all the best intentions when I decided to go ahead with it. Unfortunately, the rain decided to come in a few hours early & put a damper on the flying & cooking. Thanks to all who got wet & helped set up & tear down. BUT, we did have a silent auction of some of the items Bob Gezon donated to the club. Folks walked away with some pretty interesting stuff & the club drew about $560.00 for the coffers. Thanks so much to Danny, Jim & Ed for getting it all together. The remainder of the lot will be sold at the swap meet. I myself purchased a "Kloud King" old time plane that was built by none other than Bill Whitney. A nice bit of club history there.
