In case you missed May’s monthly meeting, here are a few important items for you. First, the board of directors would love to know what you think of the club, its activities, and a few other things. To that end, a survey was created to gather your thoughts. Scan the QR code in the article graphic, or just click on aaaaballoon.club/membersurvey23 to go directly to the survey. It shouldn’t take you more than a few minutes. Please provide thoughtful answers and comments. The board will review the results at its meeting on June 19, and we’ll report the results at the June meeting on June 27. Then the work begins to improve club activities and happenings. Thanks in advance for your participation.

You may remember at April’s General Meeting, Beth Wright-Smith provided a Safety Corner presentation on flying in and around thermals. The topic was prompted by an Easter Sunday flight activity that didn’t go quite as planned. In May, we heard from the pilot of that flight. And now both meeting videos have been posted to our 2023 Meeting and Videos page. In order to respect copyright, a section of the video Beth showed had to be redacted. We left Beth’s audio description and the link to the copyright section is on the screen in case you want to take a look for yourself.
