Upcoming

Northwest Section of the Ninety-Nines
Spring Board of Directors Meeting
Saturday, April 26, 2025, in Pasco, WA

We will gather on Friday, April 25, at Tri-Cities Airport (KPSC) in Pasco for a reception/dinner. All Northwest 99s are invited; it's a great educational and networking opportunity. All are welcome at the Saturday events at the airport: the board of directors meeting, lunch, facilities at the Bergstrom FBO, and the newly reopened Pasco Aviation Museum, followed by dinner. The conference hotel will be the Red Lion Pasco Airport. Bergstrom caters to and sells fuel to those who fly themselves in, while numerous airlines fly commercially to the terminal.

Timing, agenda, and registration (food) costs of the meeting are still to be determined. But we will definitely be discussing the upcoming Northwest Section election in June. We plan to include members who can't attend in person with a virtual meeting option.
