The Women in Aviation International Conference is coming up in just a few weeks and we are still putting in efforts to fund raise for the conference. We are raffling off a free flight lesson! No prior flying experience is necessary. The winner will get to fly over campus with an instructorgiving them the chance to see campus from the skies and experience flying. Our group will have a table set up at Baker Center on 2/21, 2/23, and 2/28 to sell tickets. Tickets will be one for $1 or 6 for $5. The hour of flight time is a $150 value plus the instruction time. For only $1 you could win this experience. Once the winner is chosen they will personally get to schedule a flight time with an instructor. The winner gets to schedule the flight on their own time around their class schedule.
With the conference coming up in just a few weeks, this is one of the last fundraising attempts we can fit in. The money raised will go towards lowering each member's total conference cost. In previous years, the conference has been completely covered by our fundraising. This year we have a lot of new members and it is the largest group yet to attend the conference. Even with all the new members, we just barely meet the member requirements to be considered a chapter of Women in Aviation. Since there are so many people going, it is the largest out-of-pocket cost that we have had and we need all the help we can get for being such a small group.
I'm looking forward to this fund raiser. In my time at OU this is the first time we are raffling a flight! I feel really good about this one.
