Welcome to the August 2025 issue of On The Fly!
Happy Labor Day, and a special thank you to all who are working the holiday weekend. This time of year (the “ber” months as referred to on social media) is one of my favorites for many reasons, not least because it includes our second flagship event of the year; Cape Cod Classic. Our annual pilgrimage to Provincetown is something I’ve been particularly looking forward to this year as it marks the beginning of our year-long recognition of NGPA’s 35th anniversary! Keep on the lookout for ways to celebrate throughout the year, and be sure to take advantage of the community we’ve built the past three and half decades.
Although we are looking forward to all of the amazing events coming up in the Fall and Winter, we're still not ready to let go of summer just yet! Thank you again to our amazing partners at Avemco Insurance (left) for sponsoring our fantastic EAA Hangar BBQ, and congratulations to DC Out of the Runway Chapter member Russ Prechtl for winning the Avemco Flying Eyes Sunglasses giveaway (right). If you had an amazing time with your NGPA community this year, please consider sharing your photos via the link below!
Just a few short weeks until the NGPA's Flagship East Coast Event: the Cape Cod Classic! Set in picturesque Provincetown, MA, this four day event is one not to miss!
For the first time ever, we have developed a guide to help new and seasoned members alike navigate this iconic event. Tips and tricks for travel, lodging, events, networking, and much more is available HERE.
