FROM TRUDI AMUNDSON...YOUNG EAGLES PROMOTER AND ORGANIZER EXTRAORDINAIRE:
Thank you ALL for another very successful Young Eagle’s Event today at the Brainerd Airport. We flew 74 kids and two adults. It was our biggest YE yet and it never would have been as successful without all of you. Thank you to the pilots for flying, thank you Greg for coming over to Brainerd from Aitkin and we are all glad your plane is ok. Thank you to the most awesome ground crew for escorting and helping to load the riders, to handling situations we didn’t expect, and for being flexible and resilient.
A special thank you to Jane for being the “Greeter of all Greeters” and stepping in to help. Thank you again to all of you listed below and if I forgot anyone, I sincerely apologize.
Pilots: Mark Bearrs, Mark Crist, Greg Jorvig, Jon Lee, Howard McCollister, Walt Roberts.
Ground Check in Crew: Brandon Eberts, Joe Lambert, Michelle Lambert, Roger Macy, Dick Piepgrass, Mike Peterson, Corrine Roberts
Additional ground crew: Jane Hubrich, Adam Lee, Craig Rodamaker, Rod Osterloh
I received an email from a mom who asked if there was availability on September 21st for our YE event at East Gull Lake because her son, Rory, “HAD A BLAST” and wants to do it again-
It takes a village to pull this kind of event off and we have one heck of a village. Thank you again so very much.
