There is an old saying, that it doesn't rain but it pours. Well the same could be said for CHAA these past few weeks. Firstly, the 15th October saw the floor on the north side of the hangar ripped up and totally removed from the airport by Kirwin & Oatman Excavating, under the supervision of Tony Cook of K & C Concrete. Then in went the new cement floor. By the time the Saturday Members briefing came around things were looking pretty good. On Tuesday work started on getting our equipment, which had been stored in a portable garage, back into the hangar. This is a job which will take a little time while we sort out what needs to be kept and what needs to be disposed of.
Here it is Wednesday the 24th October, and the word has come down that we have received another $ 750.00 grant from the Oxford Community Foundation - this grant is to add three (3) more lights to the north side of Hangar 2. Leslie Ross and Mark Seaton, representing the Oxford Community Foundation toured our facility on the 2nd of October, saw the lights which were installed from the 2006 grant, and commented that more lighting was needed. They took their findings on our request back to the Foundation and the result is that we will be able to add three (3) more lights to the north side.
