Tracy, Ed, et.al.;

 

My first thought is "I'd really like to be there"; which is immediately followed by "yeah, but it's way the h__l over in FL, and I can't land at his airstrip anyway".  Now, I realize that a rotary roundup anywhere but at Tracy a= nd Laura's just wouldn't be the same.  But OTOH, perhaps if it were somewhere more toward the center of mass of the rotary fliers, more of us could/would participate (or then again, maybe you prefer to limit it to you Southeaster= n RV flyers J= ).  Oh, not this year= , you understand; but something to think about for the future.

 

Maybe there is someone in Kans= as who has the ideal location; or maybe Missouri.  Looking at the Frapper map of rotarys, that may result in the lowest 'radius of gyration' so to speak (you non-technical types can look it up on Wikipedia). Of course, that is still a long way from San Diego, but a paved= runway would be good.

 

Actually, I could probably hos= t it in Glen Ullin, ND (D57).  I'm sure you would all like to fly up to the Da= kotas.

Ok, folks it's that time of the year again.  No =96 not Hurricane season =96 well, Yes, it is Hurricane season, but we are also coming up on that momentous,  one-time-a-year event, commonly known as the "Rotary Round up" hosted (as usual) by that fantastic couple - Tracy and Laura Crook.

 

Please note that the event has b= een moved up a week,  hopefully to avoid those first of the seaon's wi= nter weather patterns that always seems to hit the last weekend in October and hinders some of us (the more faint hearted) from attending. 

 

MOST important, Laura needs to h= ave some of you folks give presentations for the enjoyment, enlightenment and overall entertainment of the rest of us.  Challenges? Problems" (solutions!!! We like solutions!), different approach or just a progress re= port =96 and it doesn't even HAVE to be rotary related.  Come prepared to enjoy the company of others with common interest =96 or heck, just to eat the food and enjoy the campfire stories.  Lies, wild tales= , stories, fabrications, prevarications are all permitted, but the latter are discouraged until at least 3 beers have been consumed by all listening {:&g= t;)

 

Here is the official notificatio= n =96 get your RVSP into Laura while you are thinking about it.=

 

= The annual Rotary Roundup, hosted by Tracy= and Laura Crook, will be held on October  17/18/19, 2008 at Shady Bend Airpark (9FL5) in Bell, FL.  Here is the link for all the details:

= http://www.rotaryaviation.com/invitation.html

= And.. I am looking for people to present 5= 5 minute forums on Saturday afternoon.  Please email Laura at laura@rotaryaviation.com if you are interested in doing a forum and with RSVPs for the event.=

Nuff, said.

 

Hope to see you there =96 heck! Hope to get there this year myself.
