Re: EAA Young Eagles activity cancelled
Good morning, Joe.
No word.? Yesterday we were told that the balloons would still be there as long as the winds were fairly calm., and there are other activities planned as well.? I'm certain that the city plans are still in effect.? We would have problems flying, including several inbound aircraft to help carry YE's.
Sorry for the delay.
Jim
Jim, Any word on all the other airport activities?? Do I need to tell my CAP squadron to stand down? Joe Reaves Deputy Commander Gregg County CAP?
?Fellow aviators,
The weather is not cooperating with us, so we are officially having to cancel today's Young Eagle activities.
We look forward to having another event sometime late summer or early fall.
Thank you all for your interest and efforts and? understanding.
Kind regards,

Re: Young Eagles status as of Friday evening....
Thank you for the update. My guys are still planning to come. I’ll be there, too. Matt and Tanner were disappointed that they couldn’t fly last week at Minneola. They don’t mind traveling in MVFR.? Hoping to see you tomorrow. -jo
Fellow aviators,
As of this afternoon it was decided to delay our activities by one hour, so here is the revised schedule:
0800 show-up vs previously 0700
0845 Pilot/groundcrew briefing vs 0745
0930 Flights vs 0830
Seeing the aviation forecasts are disappointing, however we know how things can change within hours.? I'm not the one to make the final yes/no decision but this is how things stand at this very late hour,
Thanks!

Friday setup for Young Eagles event at 1600
Fellow aviators,
A reminder for today's (Friday) setup activity at Gladewater Muni (07F):
Those who are planning and able to participate in our setup activities at 1600 today, please join us at the FBO.
Ronnie Godfrey, our Chapter 1656 President and Young Eagles coordinator is asking for participants to bring 10' tarps, a ladder, and safety vests.
The event schedule for Saturday morning is:
0700 Volunteer meetup at the FBO
0745 Pilots/participants (everyone) safety briefing
0830 Flight activities begin
1130-? End of flying activities
We can never have too many volunteers, both pilots and ground participants, so please join us if you're able.? If you have safety vests, 10' tarps or ladders, we'd appreciate your help with those items.
Thanks to all!

Re: Young Eagles event 5/20 - volunteers needed Friday afternoon and Saturday during the event
Pilots:?
Please don't forget that you have to be EAA Members in good standing and have completed EAA's background check within the last three year prior to flying kids.? Check your credentials to make sure you're still covered and that you're not expired.

Hi!? I’m from the Mineola group, and I’m available to help with Saturday’s event. I also have pilots that are willing to help. Is it too late for them to join in? Both are flying 172’s and are CFI’s at SkyPark at KGGG. They were both signed up for Mineola but that event got canceled. Thanks! Jo Gowing
