Touchdown! Greaser!
Okay, P of A members -- here is information on the first (of many, we hope) fly in that we are organizing at our new place on Mustang Island, Texas. This one is primarily for Cherokee owners/pilots, but we probably won't make fun of you too much if you show up in another brand airplane... 
Here are the tentative particulars:
Friday, 9/17
We will come fetch you at the airport as you arrive. (Mustang Beach Airport -- KRAS) We'll do a good, old-fashioned cook-out at poolside at our motel (the Harbor Inn) at 7 PM. You can check into your rooms any time after 3 PM.
We will then sit at poolside, tell lies, and drink massive quantities of beer, wine, and other evil liquors, till the wee hours of the morning.
Saturday, 9/18
We deliver breakfast to each guest, each morning, so you don't have to worry about b'fast. Sleep late, cuz it'll be outside your door in a sealed container, waiting for you.
During the late morning, head down to the beach. Lay around. Walk the island. Borrow one of our bikes. Do whatever. Most importantly, RELAX. That is what this island is all about.
Sometime mid-day, we'll all go on a Dolphin Cruise or fishing charter. That takes a few hours, and is a lot of fun. More beer will be consumed, of course.
We will then all convene at a local restaurant for fresh seafood, more lies, and more booze. (Basically, you can plan on staying drunk for two straight days, since that's what Mustang Island is all about, too. The motto here is: "Mustang Island: A quaint little drinking village with a fishing problem...")
After THAT, we can head back to poolside, where the lies, drinking, swimming, and hot tub soaking will continue. Or, maybe we'll stop at our neighborhood bar, the "Salty Dog". Or both?
Sunday, 9/19?
Well, y'all can sleep late, eat your breakfast when you wake up, spend the day on the beach, and we'll ferry you back to your planes as needed.
I don't have prices for food and the charter thing, as yet. Mary and I will supply the Friday cookout, but Saturday we'll have to all kick in something.
There you have it. No seminars. No meetings. No vendors. No pressure. Just RELAX with your fellow Cherokee drivers, and enjoy the hospitality of Port Aransas and Mustang Island.
As a member of Cherokee Pilot's Association/Piper Owner Society, Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), Antique Aircraft Association (AAA), or Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), you ALWAYS net a 10% savings at either of our motels -- but for this fly-in ONLY you will net a TWENTY percent (20%) discount. The room rates are as follows:
Single Queen, normally $99 -- fly-in price; $79
Double Queen, normally $109 -- fly-in discount $87
Double with kitchen, normally $119 -- fly-in discount: $95
Want to bring a pet? Add $25/night. We have some smoking-permitted rooms, too.
THESE PRICES CANNOT BE BOOKED ON-LINE. Call us, toll free, at 888-671-8088 to reserve.
Incidentally, this is being held in September so that (a) we're past the "high season" (and can give y'all a good discount), (b) it will be a bit cooler, and (c) we can get into the bars and restaurants with a group.
