NOVEMBER, 2019
2019 marked a major push for new education opportunities and record number of events!
The end of the year will be devoted to gaining additional support to finish the FedEx, JetWay and Education program, Tennis Shoes on the Tarmac.
Enjoy a Year in Review
January - March - Strategic discussions with neighbors and leaders in the community.
April - Car Show and Pancake Breakfast with Hangar Talks
June - Our very first Tennis Shoes on the Tarmac STEM camp for 3rd - 5th graders
July - Open House honoring the 30th anniversary of the crash of United Flight 232
August - The Ghost Squadron B24/B29 from Dallas Commemorative Air Force / Air History Power Tour brought FIFI, the B29 Superfortress to SUX. Wow. What a week!
August - Big Band Dance with Meryl Lake Orchestra
Summer - Tour your own Home Town
October - Fall Fest celebration weekend with the City of Sioux City.
November - MidWest Honor Flight Hangar Dance.
Gilchrist and MRHD have been great to support projects at the museum. The FedEx is on our list to open in early 2020 to celebrate our 10th anniversary in our new building.
All of these initiatives are part of our long-term plans to host events that highlight our holdings, seek grants to expand exhibit and educational opportunities, and place the museum in a positive financial ground.
I'm pictured with Fifi on her last day at SUX. I'm happy for two reasons -- I made it through the week, and was honored to have ridden her. Please email me at mickelson@morningside.edu if you have any questions or just want to visit about museum operations.
