Thank you, Sandpoint!

A local film maker, Mike Strain,  is doing "Life after service: North Idaho Veterans" a documentary  of veterans in Sandpoint.  He interviewed me about "Charlie."

If anybody has any dirty, nasty old cash lying around they could spare, project "Charlies" needs a bit of a cash infusion.
Tax deductible donations can be made out to
Viet Nam Veterans of America, chapter 890. 
Mail to
V.V.A. Chapter 890

Write on the check:  "for Charlie."  "for the H-34"  or something to indicate donation is for the old H-34.
Many thanks again to all the wonderful supporters out there who have helped us get this far, and thanks to those who will help now and in the future to help this project move forward.

We are gearing up for the "LOST IN 50's" parade in May, and are in need of a few dollars to continue sprucing up the old bird.
In June we will be towing her to our local Veterans Stand Down at the fairgrounds. 
That is a very short distance from her new home at the A-1 Sandpoint Helicopters new home base.
August will see her at Lake View Park for the annual veterans picnic, and once again we will be taking her to the local high school for Veteran's Day activities in November.
We may even be able to have Charlie deliver Santa at the local Christmas tree lighting ceremony down town next Christmas.  Stay tuned!
Cheers!
