Greetings Everyone,
Our speaker tomorrow is Mike Lewis, Farmington Airport Manager . He will give a general update of the airport activities and discuss any major projects or issues. The airport received a grant to upgrade runways to handle regional jets. He will discuss the relentless quest for new air service for our market and also speak about the current pilot shortage.
Last week’s presentation was on the many programs Kiwanis participates in throughout the year. A big thank you to Jill McQueary for informing us what each project entails and the sign-up sheets she provided. Thank you to those who committed to helping with projects. Thank you to the Committee Chairmen. Together, we make big things happen!
I would like to thank the Hixon Award committee (which is made up of past recipients) for selecting me, to receive the Hixon Award. I am honored to be this years’ Hixon Award recipient. Thank you for this incredible award.
