January MAAG Planning Event a Success

About 40 members of MAAG gathered today at the home of Steve and Carol Quick to enjoy a "picnic in January" and also plan some of the various fun things we will do throughout the year. Steve is pictured at the early stages of cooking hamburgers and dogs. The anti-fire bottle stands at the ready. As always, Steve did a superb job at the grill and others contributed some tasty side dishes.

The following is a tentative plan for 2010:

January 17, 1:00 PM, Steve & Carol Quick's Home for Burgers

February 14, 1:00 PM, Kansas Air Museum, west entrance, chili

March: Open

September 13, Phil Ciholas Eagle Airfield Hangar Party

October 10, 1:00 PM, Randy & Debbie Shields' Home/Hangar at Benton Airfield (house warming)

January Meeting at the Quick's Home

A "July picnic in January" is the theme for the next MAAG meeting...indoors of course. Here are the particulars:

The Quicks are on the corner of Reflection Road and Reflection Road Court, 2 blocks west of Ridge. It is easiest to enter from Ridge Road at the Reflection Road entrance between 21st and 29th streets. They are on the corner of a short cul de sac. Please feel free to park in the driveway, in the cul de sac, or on Reflection Road.

There will be grilled hamburgers, hotdogs, and brats. Please bring a side dish: beans, chips, salad, etc or desert. There will be iced tea and a selection of soft drinks and beer.

A short meeting will be held in which we will set the schedule for the 2010 MAAG meeting locations and hosts.

We look forward to seeing you next Sunday! Looks like the weather will be cooperating and providing sunshine, but a little chilly. Please feel free to wear shorts and Hawaiian shirts if you dare!

As always, guests are welcome.
