Pancakes and a movie, January 4th

Come out to the EAA hangar at the Lincoln Airport on Saturday morning (January 4th) for a pancake breakfast and an aviation movie and some good hangar flying.

All are welcome for our (suggested) $5.00 breakfast that will be served from 08:00 until 09:30. That’s right, last pancakes on the griddle at 09:30 so come early and often for a fun, relaxing morning.

IMPORTANT–Are You Going To Attend the Holiday Party On Wednesday, December 11th

We are trying to firm up the number of attendees for our Holiday Party set for Wednesday, December 11th, at Cattlemen’s Restaurant in Roseville.

Tickets are $45 per person…a good menu and a good time is planned for all.

We have not had many chapter activities in the past few weeks so our ticket sales opportunities have been limited this year.

What we need to do is to get a head count of how many of our chapter members, families, and friends are planning to attend. Whether or not you have yet purchased tickets, will you please let us know via return email if you are planning to attend and how many will be in your party? If you don’t yet have tickets, we will set them aside for you and get them to you at our next opportunity.

We will be selling tickets next Saturday at the Pancakes and a Movie event at the chapter hangar between 8 am and 10 am. We will be able to take debit or credit cards to purchase tickets. Our chapter board members also have the tickets available for sale. Cash is easiest, checks are great (made out to EAA Chapter 1541), or we’ll take credit/debit cards if you get us at the right time.
