There is free tie down space for planes and self-contained camping in the field on the far side of the runway.
A block of 15 queen and 15 double queen rooms are reserved at the Best Western hotel at a rate of $129 plus tax per night (pets $12 more).
Phone (570) 748-3297 and ask for "BACFest" rate.
A social room is reserved there for us and the general membership meeting on Saturday.
A tentative agenda is:
Thursday - local touring and visitation of aviation businesses on the field, possible clinic, a social dinner off site, and socialization later in the evening at the hotel.
Friday - flyout to Williamsport (KIPT) for a tour of Penn State's aviation college and then a tour of Lycoming Engines (Security is strict here and a copy of your photo drivers license must be submitted by Sept. 10), then lunch and fly to Penn's Cave (N74) for a tour. Non-fliers will visit Penn State's Arboretum, Palmer Art Museum, etc., lunch and then meet up at Penn's Cave for the tour. The evening is left open for your choice of dinner, bar hopping, and socialization.
Saturday - Annual General Meeting at the hotel. Late afternoon travel to the Piper airplane museum for touring, dinner, awards, and small program, and conclude at the hotel social room.
Sunday - for those who want something other than the Continental breakfast at the hotel, you can go to Sentimental Journey's pancake flyin at the airport.
Some people have suggested some additional events. If you have suggestions or questions contact me.
