12 MAY 2012 Meeting - EAA 506 Hosting Young Eagles at LHZ

The Young Eagles Rally will run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Triangle North Executive Airport.  The LHZ Pilots Association will sponsor a breakfast for EAA 506 members beginning at 8:00 a.m.  All rally information is also posted on the EAA website and insurance has been applied for.   Chris and Mishelle are ground coordinators for the event.  We could use a few volunteers to help out with registration, certificates and ground school during the event, and of course, pilots for those who can make it.  We will prepare community service bulletins to the Franklin Times and N&O the first week in May.
