Flightline Progress Blog

This was commented on the Riders Blog page but it is more about the Progress of saving flightline so I reposted it here.
Has there been any progress on getting something in the Local media? Papers or news?

Minette went to the county offices today to get the “parcel number” of the property, since the County seemed to need this info to do any research on their end, and to see if I could track down Maryanne Vancio, the County Trails Coordinator.Minette found out that Maryanne’s dept is not responsible for this parcel.

Things to do:
Start with Ms. Vancio, the County Trails Coordinator. Try to get the […]

Hello,
Great job on the website! I have been riding Flightline for 5 years
and seen it through at least three transformations and have often

However, the current situation is looking particularly grim.
I was at the meeting last Thursday and there was much talk about
getting the dismantling […]
