Report, discussion and possible action on the findings of the sub-committee regarding an <br />open house/fly-in at the airport. <br />Ray Ball updated board members regarding the sub-committee meeting held on June 7, <br />2012. Mr. Ball stated we have contacted the Jim Terry, with the Pacific Prowler, wants <br />300 gallons of fuel and $450.00 per passenger with a guarantee of $6,800.00. The <br />committee came up with funding ideas to help pay for this. Solicit funds from <br />corporations for $1,000.00 each guaranteed two (2) VIP tickets to hand out to anyone they <br />wanted along with advertising there sponsorship. This would help cover the cost of <br />having the Pacific Prowler here. The committee further discussed advertising thru the <br />newspaper and radio, inviting food vendors and nonprofits to setup, securing port a pots, <br />parking being handled by a nonprofit (Boy Scouts) and let them charge a$1.00 a car, <br />securing additional entertainment like aerobatic display, gliders and RC displays. Mr. Ball <br />further stated we need commitment from board members to help with the event. At the <br />next board meeting we will have a proposed budget for the fly-in. Mr. Ball requested <br />authority from the board to secure the Pacific Prowler for the event. Chairman Copeland <br />stated $450.00 is a lot of money to purchase tickets to ride on an airplane. We should <br />explore different options; Jack Ashmore has contacts for other types of airplane rides that <br />are cheaper. Motion was by Fred Williams, seconded by Jerry Coyle authorizing Ray Ball <br />to look into getting a C47 in lieu of the B25 and booking it. Motion carried 5-0. <br />S.
