FIRST AIRPLANE RIDES
The "Post Prom" Committee sponsored airplanes rides last Thursday. Surprise-Surprise they were hoping for perhaps 40 - 50 passengers and came up with a staggering 405 pre-school thru the adult riders. It was such a success it took 3 pilots, Dallas O'Connor, Joe Brand and George Bryan and part of Friday morning to get everyone airborne and back to Mother Earth. Charity Wing, age 87 was one of the older kids to go for an airplane ride. The pilots enjoyed the enthusiasm of the kids as much as the youngsters enjoyed their rides. A small miracle "no one became sick", too busy looking for their house and Gramma's! Most identified the school and A&S Industries. These things make everyone feel good - need more of them.
