CHEF AL DREWRY IN CHARGE
Chef Drewry promises some super hamburgers and fixing’s that can not be exceeded by anyone else in town. You must taste them for yourself.

THE PROGRAM:
Jim and Mary Ann McClellan love to travel, whether by the plane or just drive. While they have flown to the location below, they recently drove to the Cowboy Dinner Tree Restaurant in eastern Oregon for dinner. (OK, not just for dinner, but part of a weekend vacation.)This location could be a great flyout some time. Hear more about this place and other nearby areas that we could visit.

Minutes From Last Month and the Executive Meeting

ANNUAL DINNER AT TJ’S STEAKHOUSE IS HISTORY

Attendance at the annual dinner exceeded 30. All attending enjoyed the food, conversation, door prizes and airplane stories told by some of our own.

The big “Split the Pot” winner was Bob Taylor who then purchased a bottle of donated wine with his winnings. Thank you Bob for such a gracious act!

Editor's Comments

If you have any ideas or comments, please let me know. I want your feedback. The chapter and the newsletter are only as good as the input and the energy of the members. I want your pictures, your stories, your thoughts. Don't be shy!! If you get an interesting link or something funny via the web, please don't hesitate to share it with me.

I hope to make this newsletter a place our members look to for vital information, a thing prospective members appreciate and are motivated to join, a link our fellow EAA'ers around the country look at to keep in touch.
