Four Months out...

We're four months out from the Sumner County Aviation Festival and while that might sound like a lot of time, organizers can feel it coming just around the corner!

There are so many things we are nailing down and big announcements about the event and its entertainers will be made soon!

I can say the skies above the Wellington Municipal Airport will probably never have been as busy as they will be on Oct. 10 and 11. We know headliners bring people out for short portions of the afternoons, we saw that with the performance of the Red Baron Squadron. But this year we will have live entertainment from noon till dark, with everything from fly-bys to highly aerobatic routines from some of the best air show entertainers in the nation.

Have you ever heard of the Oshkosh Air Show? It's an annual event in Wisconsin awarding highly prestigious awards to aircraft and entertainers, commonly referred to as the Worlds Greatest Aviation Celebration.

Well, I won't go as far as to call our event another Oshkosh, but I am not extending the truth to say performers who HEADLINE the Oshkosh Air Show are performaing the same quality routine in Wellington, Kansas this October. It truely is exciting to look at what this Club has put together for our community...

Wish us luck as we continue to plan and work through logistics and contracts and details! Here's to blue skies!
