![]() COPA Flight #68 held our annual Christmas Dinner at the Waterview Resort (located in Wiarton, just steps from the Airport). This year's turnout was excellent - 45 members & their significant others gathered together to celebrate the festive season. Owners of the Waterview, Dave Peebles and Evan Leblanc were excellent hosts, with Evan "Santa" Leblanc making an appearance to draw winners for door prizes. Congratulations John Stewart, Wes Beacock & John
Burt!Unfortunately our Captain was unable to attend, so Navigator Joan Bulmer was MC for the night. Great Job Joan! Airport Manager Doug Sykes |

thanked all the volunteers for their
dedication in 2008, and announced that he would be making a cash donation
to our local hospital on behalf of all of the volunteers in appreciation of their work! A great evening, with special thanks to Monty Bennett for organizing the Christmas party.
![]() Late November I traveled to Wingham Airport and met with manager Rod Hickey, Pat Newson and Denise Lockie. Wingham is excited to be hosting the 11th Annual Platinum Triangle Poker Run, and plans are already under way to make the event the best ever! More details to come in the new year. GREAT NEWS! We are please to say that the dispute over the rightful ownership of the Wiarton/Keppel Airport has been resolved! Bill White, CAO of Georgian Bluffs has confirmed that the Georgian Bluffs name has been added to the deed. What does the future hold for CYVV? We will just have to wait and see! On behalf of Flight #68, we extend to your our best wishes for this holiday season, and a safe and happy 2009! Harold E. Fry Wiarton, CYVV |
