Aviation Alumni President Keith Scoskie said, “We are very excited to be able to host this fundraising event again this year.

“Last year it was a great success and we hope to improve this year. This is such a great opportunity for the Aviation Alumni Chapter to make a contribution to the University and its students. It is our desire to be supportive of the aviation students not only financially, but also as mentors, so that they can learn from our experiences and possibly help them get through the door to their first job as professionals.”
