We are upgrading our meeting and workshop areas, making it a year around facility. We hope to work more closely with the CAP, South Bend Composite Squadron, possibly providing our meeting room free of charge. We’ll add events and projects as they present themselves.

Our first "classroom" work night today was a success! We delved into the Stewart Systems fabric covering instructional videos as we prepare for covering the Hatz biplane project. Next week will be a classroom event again, but we'll also be getting our hands dirty as we practice and refine what we went over tonight.

Got the Vinted app for selling things online. Got caught it a scam operation. After the fake messages started getting after my financial accounts info I realized what was going on. Luckily, I blocked the f-----s and took precautions to protect my info. It began with bogus emails wanting to buy my item.
BEWARE!
