PLANE FUN 2002
This years event started out with a fizzle, but
ended with a bang. Saturdays weather was cloudy cool and occasional
light
rain, That didn't dampen the spirits of the 160 kids who took part in the Young
Eagles event. Saturdays event
came to a close when a large hail storm
moved through the area.
Sunday Weather could not have been any better.
Clear skis and mild temperature greeted kids and parents alike.
Although there
was a mild turn out of Homebuilts, There was not shortage of people. Here are
some of the photos.
