What are your goals for your senior years?
Swimming and hiking with your grandchildren? Shooting a respectable round of golf at 75? Being well enough to enjoy the sights and the nightlife on a dream vacation? Or simply maintaining your independence longer?
O n June 17th , Fathers’ Day,
Silver Star Rotary and the Vernon Flying Club
will host its 4th annual Wings ‘n Wheels event at the Vernon Airport. All proceeds from the event benefit organizations, schools and charities throughout the North Okanagan.
Wings ‘n Wheels is a wonderful family event bringing together people of all ages from throughout the Okanagan Valley and beyond; participating in a wide variety of activities and displays with a wing or a wheel. One of the most sought after activities which quickly reaches capacity is the Vernon Flying Club’s free 20 minute flights for children ages 7 to 17. This is a great opportunity to introduce kids to the thrill and science of piloting an aircraft. The younger children will be entertained with a musical performance by Charlotte Diamond. There will be custom & classic vehicles on display, fire trucks & antique tractors, model aircraft and
model trains, flight simulators, sky diving as well as mountain biking exhibitions and demonstrations throughout the day. Wings ‘n Wheels also expect live aircraft demonstrations from the Canadian Air Force and BC Fire Service. Along with these activities there will be face painting, clowns, music, games, and of course tasty food concessions. The Kal Tire “ride-on” kids’ trucks are always popular with the little ones.
The event will include an online auction of wonderful items including retreats to the world-class Sparkling Hill Resort and golf packages to Predator Ridge Resort. Another auction item is the opportunity to take a scenic tour of the Okanagan during a 15-minute flight on Kal Tire’s executive jet. Vernon Flying Club pilots are offering scenic flights on 2 and 4 person aircraft. Winning bidders will arrange a suitable time for these flights after the event day. Wings ‘n Wheels organizers hope to see you there on June 17th to 4 pm.
; gates are open from 10 am
