Hi Jim Quinn, Our Chapter will be hosting a Young Eagles Rally on May 18th at the Wood County Airport (KJDD) from 8:00AM to 12:00PM.? As you know, it's the volunteers that make these rallies so successful!? We¡¯re inviting you to help give these kids a memory that may change the course of their life. For some of these kids, this could be their first exposure to airplanes and to experience flight. No matter what chapter you're in or, even if you don¡¯t belong to a Chapter, if you'd like to be a part of this rally, either as a "Young Eagle Pilot" or as an "Event Ground Volunteer", please take the time to qualify yourself referencing the information below. ?We have currently limited YE registrations to 60 kids however, if we get more pilots to help we¡¯ll increase that number! The recent Sulphur Springs Chapter 1094 event had 200 kids registered and they had to cancel due to weather. As you can imagine, there are many other duties required in such an event other than ¡°Pilot¡± such as: Ground Instructor; Registration; Dispatch; Logbook Entries; Escort; Flight Line; Aircraft Safety Watch; Food service; Parking and so on.? ?Although preferred, you do NOT have to be a current EAA member or Chapter member to help as an ¡°Event Ground Volunteer¡±. ?Volunteer as an ¡°Event Ground Volunteer¡±: If you would like to assist in this rally¡¯s efforts as a ¡°Ground Volunteer, please use the link below to contact the Coordinator of the event to indicate your willingness to help and state your preference of duty listed above: Volunteer as a "YOUNG EAGLE PILOT": If you are a Young Eagle pilot and would like to participate in our event, please use this link to contact the Coordinator of the event and indicate your willingness to help: If you¡¯ve thought about becoming a Young Eagle Pilot but haven¡¯t yet, it¡¯s easy.?
