Volunteer Opportunities:

• Sat, 1/24 - 9:00 am - Hangar Work Day 
  • We’ll be reporting to the hangar for a hands-on workday. Our flight plan: install drywall along the back of the hangar and bring the “aft section” of the walls in for a smooth landing. With enough hands on deck, our goal is to wrap up the final phase of the back wall and log this project as complete. Come ready to work, have fun, and help move this hangar one step closer to being fully finished!
  • All are welcome to join us - we are looking for volunteers to help finish the project.
  • Location: Chapter Hangar #16, Gate #15 - Glendale Regional Airport
