    It’s almost time for our annual club meeting to cover general business and officer elections. Over dinner, we’ll have a chance to meet the many new members that joined this year, provide an overall update on the club and our financials, discuss what we’ve accomplished over the last year, hold officer elections, discuss plans for the future, and discuss other business that you wish to bring up.
    The President, Treasurer, and Safety & Maintenance positions expire in January, so elections will be held for these positions. If you have interest in serving on the Board, please contact any of the board members for more information on these positions: Isaac Mosgrove (President), Simon Hayes (Vice-President), Joan Johnson (Treasurer), Alan Lasneski (Secretary), Al Gray (Safety & Maintenance), Chris Eriksson (Chief Pilot).
    If you know of special topics, proposals, or concerns that you’d like to discuss, please contact Isaac so that we can be sure that they are on the agenda. We look forward to recapping the accomplishments of this past year and to look ahead to further improvements for the future. This year’s meeting will be at 6:00 pm, Wednesday, January 24th at La Margarita Express, 515 Chemeketa St NE (members pay for their own orders).

    Club flyout to Yakima Air Terminal/McAllister Field (KYKM). We’re hoping that Cubcrafters will be able to give us a tour of their factory; they don’t usually do that on the weekends and we’re waiting to hear if they can accommodate us. We’ll let you know as soon as we can.

    We are excited to have dinner with the Salem Tower again this year. One of the Salem ATC controllers will be joining us on April 17th for dinner at 6:00 pm at La Margarita Express (515 Chemeketa St. NE).
    This is a great opportunity to continue to strengthen our relationship with the tower, to learn how we can work better with the tower, and to make sure we are doing what they want to make the airspace a friendly and safe place. The tower is looking forward to meeting the many people that they talk with on the radio! This is highly recommended for everyone. Please plan to RSVP to Isaac so he can estimate the seats needed.

    We have planned our annual Strawberry Shortcake and BBQ event for Saturday, June 22nd, weather permitting! Please bring your choice of meat for your family and a salad or main dish to share in the potluck. The club will provide beverages and strawberry shortcake for everyone.

    We'll start the event at 12pm, with the grilling starting at 1pm. Bring your family and friends to enjoy an afternoon at the hangars! We’ll also invite the Tower so we can get a chance to visit with some of our controllers.

    This event is BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair). It would be helpful – but isn't required – to RSVP to Isaac Mosgrove so that we can plan enough beverages and strawberry shortcake.

    Keep an eye on your emails in case the schedule changes (we need the fresh strawberries to be ready and nice weather)!

    The all you can eat dinner (chicken, rolls, noodles, potatoes & gravy, green beans, coleslaw, and dessert) is $20 (adults), $5 (children 6-10), and free for kids 5 and under. There are only 2000 meal tickets, which can be purchased in advance by contacting the church at 503-394-2437.

    As the days get shorter and the clocks change, more flying will be at night. We’re planning a night currency event on October 19th for members who want to regain their night passenger currency, or simply get some more night flying experience with a club CFI. We’ll share more details about the format and times in advance.

The quarterly meetings will normally be held on the 2nd Tuesday of the 2nd month each quarter at 7:00 PM in the flight planning room, but this quarter it will be hosted at Garmin.

    We’ll also have a special guest speaker. New member Frank Lombardi will present a safety discussion around water egress in the event that an aircraft ends up in the water. We figure this is a great topic now that so many members are stretching their wings and making the San Juan Islands and the coast regular destinations.

    Joan and Vern have graciously agreed to host the party, starting at 6:00 PM on Saturday, December 14th. In order to have enough food for everyone, each member is asked to bring either a main dish, salad, or dessert to share. The club will provide meat (turkey and BBQ ribs) and some fixings. We’ll also do a gift exchange, so bring a fun gift in the $10-20 range (aviation gifts are always fun). Bring your family or friends for a fun evening together.
    This is a great time to see old friends and to meet some of our newer members. Please RSVP to Isaac by December 9th so that we can get the meat and seating plans finalized. Also, please let Isaac know if you can volunteer to help clean up after the party. Feel free to text or email Isaac or Joan if you have questions.
