On 16 July 1966 the first glider launch took place at the newly createdRockton aerodrome. This year marks the 40th anniversary of glider operations from our airfield.
To celebrate this event we will hold a party on the long weekend 5 Aug. Mike Sury is organizing this event and he is planning one wild party with a good ol' fashioned bbq burgers, hot dogs, salad and desert. The cost is $10 a head.
As an after dinner - pre fireworks activity, we can enjoy some sports: badminton, v-ball, boccie ball (some people consider this a sport). Of course we'd have to have everyone sign a waiver so there's no trouble from broken hips or slipped discs.
Look for more from Mike Sury
