Pilots Meeting 3-1-2010

Reminder:

Disaster Action Plan Presentation.

Change of Speakers: Todd can not make it, so we will have a different speaker.

A well known "mystery" guest will give some interesting details about local pilot's and their "learning" experiences. Come see if you are one of those "presented."

We may have a $100,000 door prize - or not - you must be present to win - depends on whether I hit the lottery today.

Be there or be square.

thank you,

Terry Yon

Flight of five to the Florida Keys

Last week several of us flew down to the Florida Keys in a flight of five.  Below is a short slide show.  Thanks to Bill Como and John Gardner for letting me tag along with them.  We all had a nice time, just wish the weather was a tad warmer. Trip dates 2-18 to 2-21-2010.

Windy Road Cleanup

A small but MIGHTY crew did the roadside cleanup on Saturday, February 20th. After a lovely breakfast at Fastnaughts, we all loaded into Jim Causey'struck and hit the road. Nine of us collected 16 bags of trash along Windy Road and Golden Jubilee. Thanks to Diane for breakfast and to Jim for being our mission commander.

White Wonderland at Whiteplains Plantation

We went from this last night to this this morning.  I checked my GPS and it still says that we are in South Carolina, but when I look out the window I wonder if that could be.  This stuff should be up north.
