Members of EAA 922 were busy during the second week of August. On Tuesday, August 8, fourteen Young Eagles were given a ride as part of the space camp put on by the Neil Armstrong museum.  Mike Schnell and Ralph Shindeldecker gave rides with help from Gary Davis and Ann Vogel.

On Friday afternoon, August 11, members met at AXV and helped with the setting up for the Pancake Breakfast.  After set-up, members enjoyed a round of brats.  Yum, yum!

Saturday, August 12, 2017 members gathered around 6 am for the Pancake Day.  Pancakes, sausages, orange juice, and coffee were offered for a donation.  It was estimated that around forty attended the event.  It had been many years since one was held, so it was deemed successful by those attending.

Next meeting will be held Thursday, October 12, 7:00 pm at AXV.
