B09 Flight Report
October 10 & 11, 2009


We had a great BlueGrass Blast 2009. The weather was a bit cool but managable.
The dinner was catered and was fantastic. There was so much food that it would have taken a week to eat it all. The variety was unbelievable. There was pulled pork, hamburgers, hot dogs, brats, meat balls, cold cut sandwiches, ham salad sandwiches, baked beans, coleslaw, macaroni salad, fruit salad, cheese platter, vegetable platter, cracker tray, cake, pudding, strawberry shortcake, cookie tray, coffee, soda, fruit drink, hot water for tea and chocolate and I am sure I missed something. The food was delicous and served throughout both Saturday and Sunday.
It was great flyin' with everone.
Thanks to all our sponsors and vendors.
Thanks to all that helped make it happen.
