For those member who didn’t attend BAC Fest ’07, the location for BAC Fest ’08 was announced during the banquet dinner in Myrtle Beach. The committee chair, Dan Jonas provided some preliminary details and assured members and their spouses…..that it would be a trip worth making whether flying privately or commercially. Not all the details have been finalized, far from it, but the location will be at the Santa Maria Airport (KSMX) and lodging will be provided by the Radisson Santa Maria Hotel which is conveniently located right at the airport. You’ll be able to unload your plane and walk into the lobby and register. Check it out at Radisson Santa Maria .
The dates are October 8 – 12, 2008 and the same basic format we’ve had in the past will be used, but hopefully, with some interesting new wrinkles. A nationally known speaker will address the attendees at the banquet and a vendor display show is planned. More details will be forthcoming but for now mark your calendars, block out the time and get ready for a grand event in sunny California!
The preferred trip routes are now posted in the file downloads section. Doug Muse did a great job of setting them up for google earth and you can download them and see the route within google earth.
