The Southwest Florida chapter of the DFC was invited to be cele- brated guests at an Everblades Hockey game, complete with private VIP box suite with drinks and food, a visit from the Everblades cheerleaders, and a standing ovation from the audience when they were announced and their pictures put on the stadium screen.
Le to right with the cheerleaders are John Buick, Norm Stanley and Jim Conner
In May, the Inland Empire Chapter participated at the March ARB Armed Forces Day Air Show, which featured the Air Force Thunderbirds flight demonstration team. Pictured are volunteers Dave Clement, Jennifer and Mel McMullen and Ken Marks. Your President, Chuck Sweeney, was also there only this time he was behind the camera!
Volunteers from the Inland Empire Chapter worked the booth for both days of the show in an attempt to recruit new members, both National and Chapter. Sales of the DFC book “On Heroic Wings” were also promoted along with sales of DFC National Memorial tiles. And most important, the booth served to expose the general public to your Distinguished Flying Cross Society.
