Title: 2025 Airport Activities
Post by: Vermont Aviators on December 27, 2024, 08:52:31 am
Good morning fellow aviation enthusiasts, I've been toying with the idea of hosting aviation events in 2025 and I have a healthy list, but I wanted to run it by the group.  I think an open house at a new airport once a month would be an excellent way to involve the community.  Nothing too wild, maybe a food truck or two, a few planes on display, maybe some type of STEM display.  We definitely want someone at each airport with a "learn to fly" banner who can answer basic questions.  Again, this is NOT intended to be a large scale expo, we're keeping it simple.  These would be fly-in style events so participation from other airports would be highly encouraged, possibly rewarded.  More on that at a later date.  Another activity on my list is a poker run.  I tried a few years back and after 4 months of planning with the state, it was canceled the week before Halloween.  And my final summer project would be the return of "around the mountains in 80 days".  It was a event the state organized years ago and had great success.   
Here is a simple recap, please feel free to add suggestions. 

1. Cabin Fever - March 1st
2. Open House
3. Poker Run
4. Around the Mountains In 80 Days
