HANGAR DINNER PARTY AT EAA HANGAR IN LEE'S SUMMIT AIRPORT

Our September meeting was a departure from the normal format and venue. We gathered for just a plain, old-fashioned social event at LXT, or Lee's Summit Airport for the non-pilots! Theda Benningfield gave her traditional inspirational invocation, and we proudly recited the Pledge of Allegiance to our beloved flag and country. Barbecue catered by the Flame Throwers lived up to its name, I ran for water after the first bite! But, like the cowboy at the bar having a shot of straight whiskey, I said, "ah, that's good." There were no speeches nor safety talk, but we were reminded to check the newsletter for coming events. Sixty-seven members and guests enjoyed the event that was followed by an auction of the remaining food. Many thanks to EAA for the use of its great hangar facility, and to the members of the board including the recuperating Sara McKinley, Marvin Moore, Earlene McClure, Jeff Page and Pam Ratliff for all their time and effort making it happen!
