On August 14, 1965, our Monterey Bay chapter began. Due to

the many activities planned for this past August we decided to

celebrate our 45th anniversary this month instead of in August.

Congratulations to all of us for 45 years of active flying, and liv-

ing up to The Ninety-Nines mission statement to “Promote world

fellowship through flight, Provide networking and scholarship

opportunities for women, Preserve the unique history of women

in aviation.”

Whether you are a recent chapter member or one of our charter

members, thanks for your support and participation in this volun-

teer organization. We have much to be proud of in our accom-

plishments as a chapter over the years.

In addition, recently at the fall section meeting I learned that the

Southwest Section of The Ninety-Nines is 80 years old this

month. It started on November 1, 1930.

This is a strong heritage for us to continue to honor. Be proud of

all that we, The 99s, do!

See you at our 50th Anniversary scheduled for Friday, August 14,

2015

"Fly the Bay Tour" Topic: Nothing’s more fun than flying the S.F. Bay Tour.

Tuesday, November 9, 2010 at 7:15 PM

Location: Wings of History Museum, 12777 Murphy Ave, San Martin, CA 95046

Select Number: WP1535043

Description: Flying the Bay Tour is fun, but it makes sense to plan ahead before you launch on your tour. There are

many considerations, including the routes and altitudes to be flown, ATC communications, required clearances, and

weather issues. You’ll always want to consider in advance any alternatives, in case you are unable to execute your origi-

nal plan.

Chapter dues are $15. Make check payable to Monterey Bay 99s and send to

Sarah Chauvet , 147 Mesa Verde Dr , Watsonville, CA 95076 Our local dues run from June 1, 2010 to May 31, 2011
