Thanks to all of you who get the field in shape for those of us that fly in a few days before and for those who just come for the show! I know there are folks who start working in March way before the official slave (I mean volunteer) labor show up in June. The EAA does provide digs and food for those who work and it makes it a wonderful place for all of us. Thanks again for your hard work (and tell Joe I'll see him later in July!)

We will see you on Wed. night, but I fear on Saturday we will be at OSH parking planes. Someone has to do it!
Joe G. from Forest Lake, MN parks planes with you. '56? '57? Cessna 172 (black and gray). He keeps his plane at ANE. He's also a member of a local flying club. Joe is one of our chapter's Young Eagles Coordinators.
He flew his plane over to OSH this past weekend for our Chapter's (AirVenture) work party. I drove one of the vehicles - we had eight members go over. Rolled into town at 7:30pm Friday evening.
EAA put us up in the (nice) Volunteer's Bunkhouse, fed us three squares on Saturday, then breakfast and lunch on Sunday. We left OSH, heading back to the Twin Cities Sunday afternoon, after wandering around the museum for over an hour - not enough time. Six hour drive (approx).
Grass cutting, painting, tile laying, tram refurbishing, hanging signs on buildings (Me! Me! Me!) ...and some other tasks I don't recall, were all needing volunteers.
The Sonex Aircraft factory tour (Sat night at 6:00pm) got canceled due to a power outage on their side of the field. So, we hung around the bunkhouse, instead, drinking the beer that magically restocked itself in the fridge. Thank you EAA. :-)
Overall, we had a blast. Will sign up for the work "party" again!
Joe says "Hi Margy."
