Flight Kickoff - 2017

The Flight Committee met today to kick things off for the year. Bonnie Goff is leading the effort to make this the best Flight event ever.

Vance Valades is leading the fabrication effort and we're well underway with that.

Next up is the call for artists. The word is getting out, but if you know of an artist who might be interested, please let Bonnie know.

Also, we're looking for club Rotarians to participate as volunteers in this year's effort. This is our major fundraiser for the year and every Rotarian helps to make it a success.

Please contact Bonnie Goff at 574-377-4026 or artists@csflight.org
