Mudbowl and BBQ Sat 4 Aug

The SOSA Youth Team will host its second fundraising barbeque of the year on Saturday, August 4th, 2007, during the annual SOSA Mudbowl. The theme of this barbeque will help usher in the fall season, with a delicious meal of freshly cut corn straight from the field, and tasty polish sausages or chicken breast. The usual sides including potato salad, caesar salad, and fresh buns will compliment this feast. Back by popular demand is Lynne Gough and her extravagant selection of desserts. If you missed her TRIFLE, you shouldn’t this time! At dusk, our CFI (chief fire igniter Adam Oke) will set ablaze all that graces the north fire pit. It is sure to be an excellent evening, and will be a great start to the annual Mudbowl. This will be the social event of the year!

The cost of the barbeque is $13 (or two for $25), and should be paid the night of the barbeque. Accounts will not be billed. RSVP by August 2nd to jay_airplanefreak@hotmail.com with the number of individuals attending in your party. Bring the whole family and all your friends to the club on August 4th for a great evening.

The 800Km Man!

Here is SOSA's 800Km Man, Adam Zieba. On holiday Monday, July 2nd, Adam flew an 802Km flight that lasted more then 9 hours. This is the longest flight flown out of SOSA. Well done Adam.
