February Membership Meeting


Membership Meeting – February 2022 – Restarting our regular meetings

At long last, we’re getting back to regular Membership Meetings and the whole program of aviation and Chapter activities we’ve so badly missed in recent times.

The Chapter Executive Board and Chapter Officers provided updates at Saturday’s meeting at the Chapter hangar, listing the status of Chapter financials, Membership Renewals, Fly-Outs, Scholarship plans, Pancake Breakfast fund-raising schedules and the resuming of our Young Eagles flights. We met in the space of the main hangar and ran through a brief presentation of each topic, taking questions and encouragement from the membership. Attendance is understandably not yet back to our regular levels, but we’re getting there, and it was good to get together with long serving members and also to meet new members joining the Monthly Meetings for the first time.

Several members took the opportunity to renew their membership for 2022, and the Chapter also received several donations – most welcome!

You can view the meeting presentation material here.

Of particular note, was the announcement that Bud Swenson is replacing Melissa Ortega as Chapter Treasurer.

We’ve scheduled the March Membership Meeting for Monday March 14th, at 6pm, in the Chapter Meeting Room, details to follow, and then we’ll resume our regular schedule in June onwards. Speakers on the aviation topics are being arranged for future meetings, which will occur in the Chapter Meeting Room, as in past years.

Thanks to those who attended and contributed Saturday, if there are any questions or comments on any aspect of Chapter operations please let us know – communications@eaa240.org

February Membership Meeting


What’s Next?
February Membership Meeting & Pretzel Bash 2022

Saturday, February 26th, 10am, Chapter Hangar

We were hoping to have a meeting February 12th, but are deferring it to Saturday 26th, when we’ll hold a casual ‘join-us-if-you-can’ session at the Chapter hangar, starting at 10am.

We’ll share updates on Chapter programs and plans for the warmer months (pancake breakfasts, Young Eagles flights, Fly-Outs, Chapter Workshops and more).

We’ll also have a Pretzel Bash, serving the best of local pretzels and the trimmings.

Join us, join the fun. Come catch-up with your member colleagues and get updates on the Chapter activities being organized on your behalf. Board Members will be present to answer your questions and take your suggestions.

Haven’t renewed your membership yet? WHAT??!! Well, you can do so during the morning meeting….or here and now!
