APRIL, MAY, JUNE EVENTS
March has been a busy month for the Club and the next few months will be just as busy and just as much fun.
SUNDAY APRIL 7
This will be our annual Club charity day. As usual, we will be offering free local flights to children and parents/carers from Can Do 4 Kids. There will also be a free barbecue lunch, courtesy of our sponsor, Tony Blagrove and LJ Hooker. We will need as many club members as possible to help out with aircraft for the flights as well as organising the passengers and preparing the barbecue.
WEDNESDAY APRIL 10
Committee meeting at the club house.
SATURDAY APRIL 13
Fly in to Loxton for Loxton Aero Club fly in and hangar dinner. Proceeds from the day will be donated to Angel Flight and we will be making a short presentation about Angel Flight at the dinner. For details, go to http://loxtonaero.com/information.pdf.
This is not an official club event but it would be great to have a good roll up of members and aircraft to support Angel Flight and the Loxton Aero Club.
