Interesting post in dec EAA 2009

I found an interesting story about Aerobatic Hall of Famer Marion Cole and local folks in a december 09 section of the EAA website:

Chapter T-shirts being ordered

  • Members decided to order 100 t-shirts in various sizes and colors, each shirt will have a small eaa logo on the left side of the front and a large Chapter logo on the back.
  • We decided most will have a small pocket on the left front.  The company we will use is Lamb specialties in shreveport (if you want to glance at what could be available).
  • Prices should be reasonable, please contact Leah M. at tshirt@eaachapter343.org if you wish for anything specific. Deadline for contact is Aug 29th. The order will be placed the following week and we should have them for the Sept Chapter meeting.

Logo Updated

EAA Chapter 343 Logo

Wordpress and the web can not begin to show how good the chapter logo looks. Great work by Leah M.

I will try to add it to the header soon. To see the full size logo click on the image. Once a new window opens right-click and choose save as…. to keep a copy. Thanks again Leah.
