Discussion regarding the forthcoming of the
Fun-Fly took place. The ladies were asked to
bring bakery goods. We asked the members
if they would bring jugs of ice. We will have
a 50/50 drawing. We will need people in the
impound area, someone to inspect airplanes
and in the cooking area. Randy Bond
suggested that we charge $2.50 for brats,
soda $1.00, hot dogs $1.50, bakery goods
$.50. The prices were made to make change
easier. The new restroom received high
approval. We have 33 members as of June

PRESIDENT’S CORNER
By Burdette Ahlstrom
First thing I would like to do is thank
everyone who helped with our Fun-Fly. It
was a great day. Not to hot and not to windy.
I think everyone that was there had a great
time. I was out for about 2 hours and
enjoyed myself. I sure hope I’m better
before our Fly-In breakfast. That is just
around the corner. I didn’t get a newsletter
out last month due to my surgery’s. I sure
hope that this will be the last time I need
surgery. We will be in need of a new
secretary, because David Sroka will be
moving to Wisconsin. He will be going to
collage this fall in Texas to become a
preacher. I know we will miss him. Well
this will be a short newsletter, maybe next
month I will have a report on the Fun-Fly. I
know Howard Morstatter will have a report
at the meeting. Hope to see you all at the
meeting.
