Oh Wow! This sounds great! I’m planning to attend this event and see all of my Mid Atlantic friends. I’ve got two children moving to VA now. This should be a great celebration of our 20th Anniversary. 19 years for me, bc I procrastinated for 11 months. 



Is 3Z going to be there at this BAC 20th Anniversary Celebration Ceremony Event?

Is Cloyd going to be there? I was in ICT a couple weeks ago and went by the old 10th Anniversary location.

Bill,

Great to hear that you will be there. I guess that’s a good enough reason for me to aim for it as well!

And, I hope Cloyd can make it too. (last seen, he was sailing on a river somewhere!)

Bill AND Mark ! That's almost reason enough to consider VA in July. I grew up ~25 miles from DC. Left there 47 years ago and vowed never to return during June, July & August  due to the 95 squared weather. 95 degrees / 95% humidity.

John Persinger, 

Looks like you have the recipe for a TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY BAC SHINDIG!  

The Annual Meeting in a couple weeks (Oshkosh) is a good time to vote to make it our official celebration. With a year's prior planning we can all add ideas to enhance the fun. 

About this time way back in 2003 the Founders were putting a new type-club together; considering each other's ideas and each donating his own money to fund BAC's infancy. There was even a lively discussion on what to name the thing.

At one time we reached 1,000 members in (maybe) a dozen countries. 

"Virginia... Fourth of July in 2024". 



(July 4, 2004 was arbitrarily chosen by the Founders to be the Beech Aero Club's first official day of business.)
