The first document name Scan is the donation statement, second one is the Talking points for Utah HonorFlights.  These documents and the different media aids below my name should enable anyone to print and take them to a meeting or opportunity in point to share Utah Honor Flights.  The holidays are upon us.  Potential applicants are everywhere.    Applications attached above or from the website can be downloaded filled out and then sent to:  UTAH Honor Flights ;  PO BOX 42 ;  RICHFIELD, UT  84701

WE NEED DONATIONS ALSO, spread the word about honor flights!    www.utahhonorflight.org  ~~ Utah Honor Flight website.

 

The UHF Summit is January 4th…. (ONLY 15 days away)  Biggest Meeting to date for Utah Honor Flights.    Tentatively in Fillmore, Location will be sent out on Monday.   This is where all reports, trip plans, dates, orders for spring flights must be completed and plans set out for our Spring Schedule.  This is the 100% showdown of our assets, ideas and plans for the initial spring offensive.  Decisions on first few flights must be made and the SNOW ball will start rolling down the hill from this meeting. 

 

Flights are tentatively planned for:  2-5April / 16-19April / 30April-3May / 14-17May / 28-31May.   We almost have enough applicants for these flights but we do need more and we need donations or they don’t fly.  Please spread the word.

 

Another idea:  Possibly get your utility, municipality, or any entity with a mailing list to consider this popup to be printed in their circulations

 

“Utah Honor Flight’s is seeking World War II, Korean and Vietnam era veterans to fly back to the DC area to see all of their National Memorials for free! 

A grateful nation trying to thank them for their sacrifice and service.   More information at UtahHonorFlight.org
