Would like to get at least one more committed overnight participant before locking in this event. Please forward to any Sonex Pilot in your area who would be interested in this event.
Thank you!

Guys, we did not get to the minimum number of 6 campers which makes the financial investment not feasible. Sadly, that means I have to cancel this event and try again in the spring.
Arjay (Ron) suggested a lunch run to JCA as an alternative. I plan on heading out there on November 11th.

Just call this a trial run for event planning. Spring will give more time to plan, and certainly a larger attendance.

If the Good Lord's willing and the creek don't rise I might be up for a lunch run over on the 11th ...

There is no restaurant on the field. We should pack our own lunch. We could also fly to a nearby airport for lunch.

LZU is always an option for a restaurant. We'll have to keep an eye on the WX as well.

Three day forecast does not look promising ... 8~(

Edit update: (Friday @ 8:15pm) Weather forecast makes this a no-go for me ...
