New Years Day 2010

Once again, we had a great day flying and bringing in the Year 2010 at Mariner's Point.  This was out 18th annual New Year's Day Fly.  In addition to out local club members, several attendees were from out of the area.  Media coverage included the San Diego Union and KUSI TV news.
