  I already have plans that I can't alter to be at McMinnville and environs b
etween August 20 and 23, and I just saw Erich Trombley (914 mono) yesterday a
t Livermore on his way back to Las Vegas from McMinnville!  With a bit longe
r notice, maybe we can attract a larger crowd.

 taxiway at the SW end of runway 22. You can park your airplane in the camp a
rea. No "conveniences" except for running water. But you are within walking d
istance of the airport office that has restrooms and coffee. Of course, free
 shuttle service to the Evergreen Aviation Museum, home of the Spruce Goose.
 It's a very impressive museum. No camping fee. Very friendly and helpful fo
lks at the airport office.
