Flying
Companion Seminar 2007
By Sarah Chauvet
Saturday, February
24, 2007, our chapter held a Flying Companion Seminar at the
Santa Cruz Office of Education in Capitola. This was our first
Flying Companion Seminar in many years and several of the presenters
had never attended such a seminar. Thanks to all the hard work
it was a great success. We had 17 people attend and their evaluations
at the end of the day were very positive. We owe a great vote
of thanks to the many Chapter members who worked so hard to make
this a success. Michaele Serasio and Dena Taylor
chaired the event. Alice Talnack provided the excellent
presentation space and the printing of the manuals. Theresa
Levandoski- Byers handled the registration and all the phone
calls that went with it. Kendra Pugmire prepared the manual
for printing and produced beautiful colored signs. They were
there at 7:00am along with Donna Crane-Bailey, Carolgene
Dierolf, Mary Doherty, Carolyn Dugger, Teri
Mantz, and Sarah Chauvet. Kryss Crocker and
her husband Andrew provided an excellent lunch for everyone
and Kay Harmon and Geneva Cranford arrived with
cookies in time to help with lunch and the afternoon presentations.

Sarah goes
over weight and balance with everyone. Then along comes her passenger,
Kay, who puts the plane way off the charts with her carry-on. |

After some
serious negotiations, Kay is convinced to leave behind her fur
coat and other belongings - especially the suitcase full of silverware... |

Everyone had
a great and educational time. |

I hope we can do this again
about the same time next year. We have had many inquiries about
the next one already. |
