Lou Fields Memorial BBQ a Success!

We couldn’t have asked for better weather or company! Our second annual Lou Fields Memorial BBQ was a success with great hangar talk and great food – on our own, new club dinnerware. There was plenty of hamburgers, salads, chili, beer, and dessert to go around and later we raised our glasses in a toast to Lou! Here are some photos from the prep and BBQ.

Fourth of July Parade!

Our Fourth of July Alameda Parade entry was a success!

Special thanks go to (non-member but Friend of the Club) Wayne Cook, who provided the model aircraft and the plywood platform it was mounted on. Decorators included Wayne, Club Mechanic Mark Baird, Liz Sommers, Ari Arshi, and Will Golden. Participants in the parade were Stan Klezmer (who drove), Liz Sommers and Peter DiGennaro (who walked/ran the 3.3 mile route, distributing pilot wings and Club decals) and Will Golden (aka Uncle Sam).
