Another big party for the Oahu flying monkeys: we will be hosting the Third Annual Bob Johnson Birthday Party and Flying Festival from May 11 to May 13, at Kahana Bay. In celebration of Bob's life, we are hereby inviting all pilots and friends to join us for our third year of birthday flying festivities.We will be camping at Kahana from Friday, May 11 to Sunday, May 13. We want to try and reserve all the sites. Please post in the comments which one you were able to get. This will be an all family weekend - we will have kayaks, surfboards, boogie boards, bocce balls and many other activities for both pilots and non-fliers. Everyone is encouraged to come and join the fun during the weekend!
Here is the schedule, weather permitting:
Friday May 11: set up camp, starting at 12 noon, and do some flying.
Friday night: meeting to finalize events for Saturday and Sunday.
Saturday, May 12, 10:00 am - 11:00 am: quarterly HPA meeting.
Saturday, noon: get in the air - events to be determined.
Sunday: more of the same!
On Saturday we will be doing a flower drop. Please try to bring a bag of flower blossoms that can be dispersed from the air. Once we have as many pilots as possible in the air, the signal will be announced for the drop.

https://camping.ehawaii.gov/camping/spc,details,1679.html

I will be chirping every day. 10 sites we need 10 monkeys to take on this job. I will get 1 so need 9 more.

Tips for that web site: You need to create an account first (it's free).
Also, don't use Internet Explorer. Or, if you must, click the Compatibility Mode button (a little broken page icon next to your address bar), and if prompted, click the button to ALLOW mixed content (newer versions of IE you click No, older versions Yes).
This is my favorite club together. Can't wait! Bob always takes care of the weather, and the company can't be beat!
