The turnout wasn't as much as we expected. I believe weather and the earlier cancellations were the
primary factors. We had one close call during the landing phase.  The food was quite good and reasonable.
After everyone ate we organized a group photo with the ones who hadn't gone  down to Avalon. After
the group photo everyone stuck around and chatted for over an hour. This interactive activity makes the
VMG  events worthwhile. As usual, we all had one common connection of being Mooney owners and pilots.
This common thread sets the stage for individuals to discuss Mooneys, flying and the overall joy of flying
void of our normal lives related to jobs, status and income.  This is the reason for the Vintage Mooney Group.

A Huge THANK YOU to Wendy Baxter for organizing this unique fly-in, and for Carl Swepston for managing
a great fly-in and VMG day!
