Schumacher and Alison are putting some ideas together to help the
program grow. Mrs. Schumacher hopes to have the ideas put together
before next month’s meeting.
The committee talked about changing the name of LMPT.
Sports/event tourism-airport events:
Mr. Bateman talked to Lorrie Paige at Bee’s Floral and RC Airplanes
about putting on an event this year. However, it’s too late to get
an event put together this year. Mr. Bateman wants the executive
committee to be the steering committee of this event. Mr. Bateman
asked Ms. Paige if she could put down a temporary track at the
airport for this event.
Mrs. Schumacher feels the first step is to pick a date for the
event.
Mr. Bateman feels remote control cars and paragliders should be on
the same weekend as the BBQ event. This will give out of town people
something to do all day.
Mr. Anderson feels we can’t pick a date yet. The committee would
like to talk to the Paiges before picking a date.
Mr. Bateman would not like to have an entrance fee. Mr. Bateman will
talk to Paiges about dates for the event. After the committee gets a
date then they will go to the Airport Committee to make sure that
day is available.
The Airport will need to talk to the FFA to make sure they are okay
with the event.
