Labour Day Yarrawonga BBQ

LFC’s BBQ on Monday 13 March was a huge success, thanks to some great weather, good organising and hard work from Angela and Tony, and an enthusiasm combining aviation with socialising.

Twelve aeroplanes departed Lilydale for the run to Angela and Tony’s hangar at Yarrawonga Airport, more than ready for a sausage or two. Those aeroplanes carried 21 people, and three more were already at YYWG to bring the afternoon’s total to 24 LFC people, one LFC dog and a few local blow-ins also partial to a good feed.

The meat was spectacular, as were the vegie burgers, salad and dessert cakes that Ange and Tony organised. It was a spread for the ages.

With tables to sit around and lounges to lounge in, Hangar 16 was the perfect place to get together and catch up with people.

To top off the day, P&M Aviation at Yarrawonga donated a flight bag as a raffle prize that was carried off, after a couple of false starts, by Doreen and Gary from RV VH-OEM.

Jenny and Sonya didn’t waste time catching up.
After the eating was done, there was still the talking.

The perfect place for an LFC day trip. Thanks, Ange and Tony!
