How about T-shirts for i= dentification, black ones with a big silver rotor on the back and a small b= reast rotor on the front.
Perhaps Tracy sells something like that?
George (down under)=20


All,

=A0Got back from Osh= kosh, talked rotary with several rotary people, and a few newbies. =A0One t= hing I have tried to do when people ask about the rotary installation is no= t to give people a pair of rose colored glasses.

Don't want to discou= rage people from the rotary movement, but also don't want to paint a fa= lse picture only to have them start, then change, and badmouth the rotaries= , we get enough of that the way it is.

=A0Rotary airplanes on the field were, Chuck Dunlop, Dave Atkins, and o= ne other fellow, I met on Tuesday that was in homebuilt camping area that I= cannot for the life of me remember his name. (sorry, I know you are on the= list, please chime in if you read this)

=A0Tracy - you were missed= there this year. Just isn't the same without you there. Perhaps next y= ear with the 8. :)
