Title: Halloween Party
We are planning to have a Halloween Party at the airport on Sat. October, 26th. Everyone is welcome to attend. We will be making a big pot of chili and cooking hot-dogs on the grill. We will also be having our annual bonfire back in the woods. We will probably start around 5:00pm and continue until whenever. It's always been a great time so see you there.

Title: Many Thanks
Many thanks to Roxanne Schaney for decorating the FBO for Halloween. She has graciously donated lots of candy also to satisfy everyone's "sweet tooth". Poor Colin now has 4 cavities and I've gained 5 lbs. She has also "chickified" the bathroom and plans to give it a fresh coat of paint. Thanks also to Mike Schaney for the help and the new light fixture.

Congrats to Justin Shetter (10-9-02), Alex Sadikov (9-24-02), and Brian Patterson (10-7-02).

Title: "Old" face
Many of you might have seen an "old" face around the airport. I'm talking about Shaun "Squirrel" Schaney. Although he's only 20 years old he is an accomplished pilot with more than 1300 hrs!! Shaun instructed for us last summer and has graciously agreed to instruct in the interim while Colin gets up to speed (Lowell and I had to hold him down and twist his arm real hard until he finally said yes ha ha). Shaun is an excellent instructor and enjoys flying and instructing. Thanks to Shaun for the extra help.

Title: NEW PILOTS!!
Congratulations to Ron Baker. Ron received his private pilot certificate on Sunday the 4th. Ron started flying here a couple of months ago to finish up his rating. Matt Yoder was his instructor. Some other new pilots on the field include Bill Welbaum, Jim Hansen, and Jim Moore. Congrats to all!!

Title: Wright Stuff Squadron PX
The Wright Stuff Squadron of the Commemorative Air Force has set up a PX display here at the airport office. They have a variety of items for sale like kids toys, hats, and T-shirts. Want a set of pilot wings to wear on your jacket? They have those, too. All proceeds will go to help maintaining the "bamboo bomber".

Title: Matt's leaving
Our own Matt Yoder will be leaving us on the 5th of August. We are currently looking hard for another instructor to replace him although it won't be easy. Matt did a great job instructing and I know a lot of his students are sad to see him leave. He will be going back to Virginia to start school in the fall. Good luck to Matt.

Title: Getting back at it.
Sorry for no updates recently. It's been the busy time of the year and haven't had much of a chance to update the site. I'm putting it on my weekly schedule, so you should see more up to date information. We have had a few students that have soloed or have received their licenses. Give me some time and I'll let you know who they are.

Matt Yoder is his instructor.
