Our ABC will take place in the Tampa Bay area this new year's eve, venue TBA. We invite all Aviation Communities across the USA to Have-a-Ball; to organize and have an local Invite-all-to-the-ball local Aviators' Ball. Why? 1. to bring the flying/aviation community and those who live in that aviation/airport community - core area [10sm radius] bring all together at least once a year... 2. to help make AOPAs' ASN program more successful with the opportunity to be more proactive verses typically reactive... 3. to have fun on a good fun/fund raiser day. 4. to raise funds for flying kids: for more and better aviation books at the local libraries, and my favorite - to build AeroTheme Playgrounds at your airports... 5. to increase solidarity - there are over 20,000 airports in only 5,000 aviation communities have an Aviators' Ball each year - then aviation will own New Year's Eve. Please share this invitation with you readers and friends, colleagues and share your ABC plans with us.
