WOL at Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum 10 AM - 3 PM on 9 FEB 08

Each year the Air and Space Museum hosts a "Family Day" event in February - Black History Month. Way of Life Alumni AF Academy grads will man an informational table and speak with museum visitors about the :Academy Experience. Tuskegee Airmen Inc members are scheduled special Family Day guests (original Tuskegee Airmen are featured speakers for a Q&A session). It will be a fun event and WOL participation last year put our Way of Life Alumni Group on the list of potential invitees for Air and Space Museum events. You do not have to spend the entire day! Some grads spent a couple of hours last year. We just ensured we had at least 5-6 grads throughout the event.

The Family Day event is 9 Feb 2008, 10:00 AM untill 3:00 PM. Check this out for more details.

Are there any DC area grads willing to take the lead on this event? We really need a local grad to take the ball on this one

Here are the main duties:
1. Act as the point of contact for grads who email or telephone that they will attend. Email is the best way to go. You will need to regularly update the possible attendee list
2. Get that attendee list to Ms Gloria Fulwood of the Steven Udvar Hazy Air and Space Museum by 6 Feb. That list will ensure our grads do not have to pay for parking. The entrance gate guard will have a copy.
3. Help set up the table(s) and chairs provided by Ms Fulwood's staff.
4. Attach the Way of Life 6-foot banner (I will either mail you the banner or ensure it is at the museum waiting for you)

I hope any of you who attended last year's event can shed more light. Let us all here from you.

Sincerely,

Richard Hall
