AND JUST LIKE THAT IT’S LABOR DAY! The leaves on the trees are showing color and the beginning of the seasonal changeover has started. Days and nights are slightly cooler by a few degrees and the sun is shortening its time in our hemisphere.
So far this season we have hatched 152 Young Eagles and the young people got to experience the joy of flight. One more event is scheduled for KCLM but is being reconsidered at this time.
We hope and pray the county, state and country will follow the advice of the health agencies and continue to receive vaccine as well as the booster, so we can cap this virus and it’s variant. Otherwise, our continued gathering indoors and meeting at restaurants will cease.
Looking forward to the Port Angeles Airport Appreciation day on the 18th. A fun time to support Fairchild airport and its economic impact, it has on the area. Have you noticed the number of business jets that have been arriving there? Over a 100 so far this year.
The nominating committee will be presenting a slate of officers in October to the chapter, so it you want to be part of the management team contact Rick Vaux, Barry Halsted or Tracy Halsted. Our chapter functions with the ideas you bring to the board and with your help. Please consider serving in one of the positons. November 2022 will be the chapters 50th year serving the Pacific Northwest aviation community.
September will be our last gathering and burger bash at Sequim Valley Airport for the year. Come out and join the festivities and fellowship. Starting with the October meeting until April, we will be meeting in the conference room at KCLM Fairchild airport in Port Angles. Heating the Sequim hangar is not effective or comfortable.
November we will have the election of the new officers and celebrate the chapters 49th birthday. December we will have our annual Christmas Toy-for-Toys dinner party (December 11, 2021 1700- ) at the Dungeness Golf Course. In the meantime be kind to each other and let us fly some airplanes. See you in the pattern.
