Hello "Snowbirds!"

Your general reminder is here~ our next meeting will take place this coming Wednesday, February 12th in the Bremerton Airport Terminal Building. The potluck starts at about 6:30 followed by the general meeting beginning at 7:00.

This month we have a program with some variety... starting us off will be a presentation by Erik Utter, a Washington pilot that had a recent experience with severe wake turbulence, shaking up some preconceived ideas on how to anticipate what lies 5 miles in front of you...

Following Erik, Cara Alferness will give us a run-down on how to successfully plan a trip to Oshkosh, titled: EAA Airventure - Maximizing Your Experience At "KOSH" July 21-28, 2025.

Afterwards we'll throw out the 2025 budget proposal for all to review/comment on. As a general reminder, ALL are welcome to join in on board meetings. Have an idea for the budget? An event to host? Fly out? Outreach? We would love to sit down together!! Board meetings are every third Thursday at 6:00 at Amelia's (most likely big back table by the bar).

Stay warm, stay safe, and hope to see you there!
