Hello all,
Please remember your invitation to our party one week from today at Slobovia Outernational, just north of Jackson MS.
You are all cordially invited to the next flyin lunch/supper/all-weekend-long hangar party at Slobovia Outernational Airport, 10 miles north of Jackson MS on October 17-19, 2003. If flying fun isn't enough reason to party, it's wedding anniversary time for two families here, so come & help us celebrate.
Overnighters are welcome any time after noon on Friday, and are welcome to stay through Sunday. Bring your bed roll and if desired, a tent. We have lots of indoor floor space & even more outdoor tent space, so come on down!
We had a great turnout in July with about 45 planes. We are hoping for at least twice that number in October.
The noon meal on Saturday will again be 'pulled pork', thanks to the wonderful wives here in our strange corner of the universe. If you can stay for the hangar party Saturday night, we plan on having 'Chili & Blues' with a live band for entertainment. Bring your dancin' shoes.
