     David and  Yogi put on a great 3D demonstration during the lunch hour giving the instructors a needed break.

     Again we want to thank the guys that worked so hard to get the field ready for this event.  Since the event we have started filling in the low spots in the runway with the load of dirt provided by Larry.
