AIRPORT FLY-IN & PANCAKE/SAUSAGE BREAKFAST
Family Friendly Event
Saturday, May 14, 2011
9:00 am - NOON
The skies above Smithville will be buzzing with activity on the second Saturday in May with the annual Airport Fly-In and Pancake Breakfast. The Smithville-Crawford Municipal Airport (84R) plays host to pilots and their guests that fly in for a complimentary pancake breakfast (cooked by Chamber board members and volunteers from the City) and a day of fun and shopping Smithville-style!
NEW THIS YEAR! Young Eagles Ground School Training for youth. See www.youngeagles.org for a sample of what they do. And there will be a representative from FAA also to speak.
Don't miss the games and contests for kids as well as pilots and attendees.
Area residents are also invited to explore the airport facilities, visit with the pilots, browse the vendors, and grab a bite to eat at lunchtime or shop in town as well, with the use of the Smithville Airport Courtesy Van. Travis County STAR Flight will also be here with their life-saving helicopter.
This event is designed to promote our airport to pilots who are unfamiliar with it, and to remind citizens that the only airport in Bastrop County lies right in their backyards (well, almost… technically, it’s located just south of Hwy 71 at Loop 230).
For more information, call the Chamber of Commerce at 512-237-2313.
