I would like to find a place to volunteer my time

A good pilot is always welcome. Some women seem to think
that their looks make up for being a poor pilot. But I've
flown with some real good women and some real bad men.
Besides, women smell and look better, but I'm a sexist pig.
Not in a bad way, I just prefer good pilots to bad pilots.

You probably will need to be a little bit thick skined, there are not a
lot of women but there are some and they do well.

I want to know if anyone can help me find a way to volunteer my time at
an air show some where in or around Minneapolis, Minnesota. I know we
are coming to the end of summer and as far as I know October is the
latest we have them in Minnesota. I am also open to any other ideas of
how to volunteer my time within this industry.

Check with me! :-)

I live in the Twin Cities and do much aviation related volunteering.

This weekend too soon to start for you? g

This weekend I will be in the southern Twin Cities (Apple Valley, Lakeville,
Farmington area) for the EAA Sport Pilot Tour - Minneapolis.

http://www.sportpilot.org/learn/tour.html

Our EAA Chapter 237 (based in the northern Twin Cities - at ANE) has been
asked to help out the Chapter hosting the event. Our Chapter has the
equipment (and experience) to put on a pancake breakfast for 1,000 people +
then do the lunch, also.

Tomorrow morning (Friday) at 9:00 am, we're loading up the canopy tent,
grills, supplies, food, tables, chairs, coolers, etc ...then driving down to
LVN and setting everything up.

Saturday (August 19th) we'll get down there, early, to get things going.
Don't know if we pack up Saturday evening or Sunday morning?

I second the recommendation made by someone else regarding the CAP. "CAP"
is the Civil Air Patrol. www.cap.gov

I'm joining myself next Monday.

Boy, I'd like to see that.

Perhaps there's an aviation museum in the area that could use more
docents or helpers of some kind.

Dani,

There is an airshow at Flying Cloud on the 2nd weekend of September. There
is more information available at http://www.wotn.org. Also, there is a
pancake breakfast/young eagles ralley at South St. Paul on the 17th. I
sent you an email with a number for a person to contact if you're
interested in that.
