Compass Rose Painting. Potomac Airfield KVKX. October 9th and 10th all day, please come and join the fun! Contact Lucy Mencia for details

Greetings all. Hope you are well.
Herewith attached are copies of the invite for the compass rose painting at KVKX at Potomac Airfield.
If possible, would like to get your help on Saturday Oct 9 and/or Sunday Oct 10, 2021.

This is sponsored by the Women Pilots 99s - Washington DC Chapter
We will be inviting the other 99s: Old Dominion, Sugarloaf and Hartford chapters to come too.
Family friendly. Please post this invite in the groups lists.

This is a large compass rose (25') , with N, S, E, W extending out 5' further. See photo.
Only NE, SE, NW, SE (not NNE, SSE, NNW, SSW) So we will need lots of hands.
We have paint, rollers and brushes. Come in painting clothes.
You can register for one day or two, for morning or afternoon.
Please come. It should be fun.

Note: This is a controlled airport, in the FRZ.
If you drive to KVKX, Potomac Airfield, 10300 Glen Way, Fort Washington, Maryland 20744 your GPS will bring you to what looks like a driveway. Go down hill and you will soon see a large parking lot, and a flagpole with hangars beyond. We will be meeting at the FBO, little white building on right at 9:00 AM. The compass rose is at the far end of Rwy 24 (to left).
