(*)Plane Washes are scheduled to reserve the planes from 9 AM to 1 PM. This should allow members convenient use of the planes on plane-wash days. Note that the September 10th plane wash is on a Sunday.
Would you like to fly to Marshall, MI, play some golf, and fly back after the next plane wash on Saturday, July 22? A trip is planned, and there is currently room for four more participants. The plan is to leave right after the plan wash and barbecue in the freshly cleaned planes on July 22nd. Each plane would carry up to two members and their golf clubs. Tee times have been reserved for 2:00 PM and 2:07 PM at Alwyn Downs, which is right next to the Marshall airport. One plane is reserved so far (1 PM to 6 PM), so if you want to go, reserve a plane and/or contact Dino Dinatale or John Keck for more details.
Safety/Training Officer John Keck is selling T-shirts with the MANG logo and name ($25) as well as window decals ($8). Custom embroidery on the T-shirts (such as your name) is an extra $5. Show your Club spirit by getting these items. Call John Keck for info or to place and order.
Tricia Yates and Chris Jones have left the Club. Tricia has severed MANG in various capacities including Chief Maintenance Officer and President. She is moving out of Michigan. She will be missed. Chris Jones has been with the Club for about one year. These two resignations bring the total membership to 51. If you know of anyone who would like to enjoy the benefits of being a MANG member, have them contact Dino Dinatale, or simply direct them to our website for additional information.
