What a way to honor Ian ❤️

The 6th Annual Ian McBeth Foundation Brew & ‘Que Fly-In was a success, and we are so grateful to every person who came out to celebrate, participate, volunteer, sponsor, fly in, lend a hand, and help make the day what it was.

This event is about so much more than airplanes, pumpkins, food, and fun. It’s about keeping Ian’s legacy of service, adventure, and giving back alive and turning that legacy into opportunities for others through scholarships and continued community support.

Six years later, this event continues to remind us just how far one person’s impact can reach and how special it is to see a community come together to carry that impact forward.
