WPMPA Community Awareness Project
Publix At Starkey Ranch hosted WPMPA so we could get the word out that we exist!
We were there from 9:00 am until 1:00pm on Sunday with a good selection of 13 aircraft. The folks that stopped by were very impressed!
We had a lot of interest! Hopfully some of those people made it to the field to see what the hobby is all about.
With the lessons learned from this event we are looking to do this again at The Starkey Ranch Publix very soon!
