It’s time to end the flying season on a positive note and this is a way for GEAR to thank all the pilots for their patronage over the summer. Come join in the fun, dress-up in a fun costume, fly, have a great dinner and then dance the night away at the Events Pavilion.

$30 per person covers prizes for pilots (spot landing), best costume, free T shirt, ham/turkey sit down dinner, dance to live music.

The tradition continues!
