Heber Assembly Day Change
We have changed the date to May 4th to coincide with Soar Utah's opening
day and to allow more time to fly out of Morgan.
Also more board members were available to move trailers that week.
We could use some help moving trailers, if anyone has a suitable vehicle
and can help Friday the 3rd call and volunteer.
