Hello fellow EAAers
Last month’s chapter meeting was held at Matt Thorn’s hanger at Thrall Lake on W Ave aka Hovious field. Matt and Rob hosted and fed us pizza.
Everyone had a great time. Not much was covered other than introductions. Then, to enhance things, most ended up going to Prairie Ronde airport for ice cream social. This event is an ongoing event weekly every Wednesday at 7:00 pm.
It was a fun and busy meeting.
That's all I have to report.
