Family Day, 12 February, was our most successful yet. There were over 800 guests and the Museum made $2,500 in donations and gift-shop/concession sales. The weather was sunny, but cold. Fortunately, the snow held off until after dark.
The Snowbird and Starfighter photo ops are always popular.
The Junior Jet-Club members enjoyed the event.
Since Valentine’s Day was so close, the Beechcraft Expeditor became the Beechcraft “Love Expeditor”
where our guests could drop their love wishes to Cupid into the airmail bag.
The Love Expeditor departed Valentine’s Eve. Destination: Cupid’s Cloud (Runway XOX)!
Another popular gag was “Guess the number of jelly beans in the candy jar.” “Laura” guessed 601.
The jar contained 610 beans. Laura won the beans and a year’s Family Membership to the museum.
