FITS 2007 - Mansfield, Washington

Another year and another great FITS! This year was wonderful and most cooperative other than the wind storm Sunday afternoon.  We had a fabulous time with great friends having good times.  This year was a year of much work as well as fun.  Kent Newman and I were co-Launch Directors for the event and only survived the load with the help of many great volunteers - all of you were just the best!  Jim Wilkerson as TAP and L3CC oversaw seven Level 3 attempts!  And Scott Bowers presided over the ever popular raffle.  Andy Casillas was always around to help with anything and every volunteer as I said was just the best!  Here's to many more great NorthWest Launches ahead!

I was able to get four launches off including my Level 3 Cert on Saturday morning.  You can checkout the details of those launches at the following links. 

Panther Paws        Big Red        Jamaica Me Crazy        The Ex
