Florida Mooney Lunch group...looking for a new organizer

[mike_elliott]

Dear Mooney Enthusiast,

 

The weather for our last event was windy with rain showers around and only 4 Mooneys brought 5 people to lunch at Fort Pierce.  But, we had a good time visiting and eating.

 

Our next event will be this Saturday, January 11 at the Flight Line Cafe at Winter Haven (KGIF) at 11:30.   As of today on Foreflight their self serve price for 100LL is $4.43. 

 

All events start at 11:30.

Future events:

 

January 11,      Winter Haven, GIF. 

February 8,      Sebring,          SEF

March 8,                      Bartow, BOW

 

 

Please let me know by Thursday if you are going to try to come so I can give the restaurant an approximate headcount.  If you tell me you are coming, and can’t come do not worry about telling me, just do not come.   I do not want anyone flying for any reason if they shouldn’t.

 

I have been putting on Mooney Lunch for 20 years, starting in January of 2004.  My situation is changing and I am thinking of giving it up after the April or May meetings.  If anyone would like to take it over, please call me. If I pass it on to someone else, you will be given the option to have your name and address removed from the mailing list before I make the transfer of information.

 

Hope to see you soon,

Dave and Ruth

Dave is a legend for doing this all those years. It’s relatively simple, but his steadfast commitment to maintain continuity for all those years is an admirable job most people can’t can’t or won’t do.

Hopefully we can show up in big numbers for the last lunch he'll organize.

Dear Mooney Enthusiast,

 

The weather for our last event was cold, overcast, with a forecast of a low freezing level in the Northern part of the state.  As a result we had 9 people show up at Winter Haven in 2 Mooneys and 2 Teslas.

 

Our next event will be this Saturday, February 8, at Sebring.  They will no longer take reservations on the weekend, so the first one there needs to tell the restaurant staff that we are coming and how many are in the group.  I will send out another email on Friday telling everyone how many I am expecting so you will know what to tell them if you beat me there.

 

All events start at 11:30.

Future events. 

 

February 8,      Sebring,          SEF

March 8,                      Bartow, BOW

April 12,                      Ft. Pierce, FPR

If I pass it on to someone else, you will be given the option to have your name and address removed from the mailing list before I make the transfer of information.  So far, no one has shown an interest in taking it over.

 

Hope to see you soon,
