Reminder: Third Thursday Chapter Meeting this week...

 

Fellow aviators,

Just a quick reminder of our Third Thursday chapter meeting this week at 1900.

We need someone to step forward to take the yoke and serve as our chapter president; Ronnie has had to step away from the position due to business and family responsibilities.? If you recall he did take the position last year with the caution that he was extremely busy even then and may not be able to serve for very long.? He will continue to be our YE Coordinator, thank goodness!

See you Thursday evening at 1900!

We need a chapter president.....

 

Fellow aviators,

As I'd mentioned in the minutes from our last meeting, Ronnie Godfrey has stepped down from the position of Chapter President effective that evening.

He'll continue to be the coordinator for the Young Eagles events (Thank goodness!) however his family and business obligations are first on the list as they should be and time for being our chapter leader just isn't easily available.? You may recall that when we "encouraged" him to step up to that plate he did say that he was already too busy but he took the position with the warning that he may have a short term.

I want to thank Ronnie for being there for us!

Now we need someone else to step up, so please either volunteer or suggest someone for the position.? "Voluntold" isn't the thing we want!?? Hah!

New guys?? Sure!? Do it!? We're a friendly bunch and can help you get going.

Thanks!? See you all for our regular chapter meeting on the third Thursdays of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the FBO!

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.


Our event is currently listed as a "PRIVATE" event, meaning that you won't see it posted on the web. We do this to target kids in our local communties by advertisement through posters, flyers and word of month.? We have currently limited YE registrations to 60 kids however, if we get more volunteers to help we¡¯ll increase that number!


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:

Once you've met these requirements, use this link to contact the coordinator of this event to let them know you¡¯re a new YE Pilot and would like to fly kids:

Thank you!

Minutes from 4/18/24 Chapter Meeting, Gregg County Historical Museum Brochure attached, etc.

 

Fellow Aviators,

I've attached the minutes from this month's chapter meeting along with a brochure from the Gregg County Historical Museum's exhibit

"Conquering the Skies: Evolution of Flight"to be held April 16 - August 31st of this year.? This will be an amazing exhibit and as a volunteer and member of the museum I can assure everyone that this will be one fantastic time to make a point and go visit the museum!? I've traveled all over the western US and I can say that our own museum is top notch, standing above any county museum I've seen over the last few decades.

If you wish to participate and perhaps offer some time, materials, etc. just give Jennifer White (Education Coordinator) a ring or email (see website).

Further news:? Ronnie Godfrey will be stepping off the Presidential Podium effective immediately due to heavy family and business workloads, so we're looking for someone to step up and fill his shoes.? If you'd be interested/eager to perform the duties, just post something using this email system so we can all see the same conversations.

Thanks!
Enjoy!
