Apple Cup 2008 depends on volunteers. As an added benefit this year for non-flying volunteers, we are asking interested pilots to make themselves available after the Apple Cup to provide an aerobatic experience ride to interested volunteers. If you are an interested pilot or volunteer, you'll be able to let us know via the online preregistration form. Stay tuned! |
