We had a great meeting today, with Mr. Sam Fischer of Florida State College at Jacksonville as our guest speaker. Mr. Fischer was representing the College's Air Traffic Control program and did a great job providing information about the program and its students. We had 15 people present which included a couple of guests. 50-50 money is up in the $400's - win that and take the split home! The Optimist Club of Yulee celebrated their 16th year - wow how time flies.
