President’s Message:
FLY – IN: NEW LOCATION
This year’s
Fly-In/Picnic will be held at a new location. We will gather at the
Gainesville Airport in Gainesville, TX on Monday, May 31 at the same
times…Noon – 6 PM. Your Board of Directors will ensure that this new
venue will be enjoyed by everyone in attendance. There will be shade
tents erected and we will again pause at 3:00 for a short Memorial Day
tribute to our fallen war veterans. Tables and chairs will be
plentiful; however, bringing lawn chairs is always encouraged.
There
will be a few custom cars on display and if you would like to bring
your favorite car to show off, please feel free to do so.
For
members who don’t care to drive to Gainesville, charter bus service
will be provided at $10.00 per person. The air conditioned bus will
depart from Valley View Mall (in the vicinity of the old Sanger Harris
store with the large mosaic artwork on the southwest corner) at 11:00
AM and return at 6:00 PM. An intermediate stop will be made in Denton
for members who live north of the metroplex. Pick up point in Denton
will be the Golden Triangle Mall in the J.C. Penny’s parking lot. Exit
Hwy 288 South off I-35. Approx. pick-up time will be 11:30.
Reservations are required and made through Rex Kathcart 972-231-5320 or 214-415-3763 before May 20.
The bus will depart the Fly-In at 5:00 PM returning to Denton/Valley View Mall.
