Volunteers and owners have already spent nine to twelve worker-days removing brush and trees in the approaches, runway edges, and around the campsite to enhance safety, according to Warner. Efforts are ongoing to remove undergrowth to improve the aesthetics of a shaded campsite area.
“The goal would be to have all this accomplished before the end of August.” Warner said. “The intent is to have it ready for a fly-in event in late September or October. This will be an opportunity to try out the smoker provided by the owners,” he added. Warner also anticipates that a group will fly in to observe the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse.
