The RVators have a flyout to Petaluma:

“Tomorrow we have decided to head to Petaluma again, it should be a nice day over there, we plan on meeting on the ramp at 11:30, last time we went the restaurant owner got a little uptight so we will pretend that we all just happened to show up at the same time, we may not be able to sit together but I am ok with that, hope to see you there!”

Movie Night?

The board members took Laura’s suggestion and put on a movie night as a test. Board members were treated to A Night At The Movies. Hot dogs, popcorn, candy and soft drinks were the backdrop for the feature presentation of Flight with Denzel Washington.

As the sun sank behind the Sutter Buttes the movie screen at the back of hangar H10 came to life. The projectionist made some final adjustments as we settled into a comfortable viewing position. The makeshift movie theater had all the comforts of the Century 21, except for heat. By the second half of the movie there was a slight chill in the air; some got jackets while others just chose to cuddle, the movie was rated R, but the audience was PG13. When the lights came on at the end of the movie we all had a better understanding of the challenges that face some in their everyday life.

The Movie Night trial went very well and I think it would be a fun thing to do for the whole club. Please voice your opinion and suggestions. We want this to be an organization that we all are glad to be a part of.

Workshops

There are a lot of very talented people making up our membership and we’re hoping they will be willing to share their knowledge with the others in the form of some hands on teaching. That’s what this is all about. We are hoping to have some small workshops which we can offer to our members for a very small fee, all the money would stay with our chapter for future projects.

Richard Bristow started the list below of possible subjects and we are looking for people who would like to teach one or two of the subjects. If you don’t see a subject you are interested in, please contact Richard with your thoughts and interests.

  1. Composite Construction
  2. Sheet Metal Basics
  3. Fabric Covering
  4. Electrical Systems
  5. Avionics
  6. Kit Building
  7. RV assembly
  8. Welding
  9. How to Rivet
  10. How to Read Blue Prints

Where this goes is up to you as members! We need people who want to teach and those who would like to attend a small hands-on workshop.

The education committee is waiting to hear from you to put the workshops together!
