As we approach the Holiday Season, we will remember family and our many Falcon friends. Let us not forget this great country we share and the brave men and women serving in our armed forces around the world. Thank them for their service as opportunity permits.

Photo Parade coverage of the 29th Falcon Club of America National Convention does not appear in this issue, but please enjoy our expanded full photo coverage from correspondents Wally Till, Ted Boothroyd, Phil Barber and others. Many thanks to all who contributed; this issue is dedicated to all of our Frequent Contributors.

The National Convention was a huge success and enjoyed by all in attendance. Thanks to the Founders Chapter, Wheat State Chapter, Mid-America Chapter, Sooner State Chapter and the Gateway Chapter for hosting this event.

 Please join me in welcoming our newest Chapter, “Wild West Falcons of Western Colorado Chapter”. This Chapter will be headquartered in Grand Junction, CO and cover the surrounding area including parts of eastern Utah. We look forward to seeing this group at future events.

Mark your calendar for the 30^th National Convention of the Falcon Club of America, July 16-18, 2009 hosted by the Mason Dixon Chapter. Please plan to join the hundreds of Falcons for the “Dash to Dover”.

 At this time Carolyn and I would like to take this opportunity to wish each and every one of you a very happy and safe Holiday Season.

Seasons Greetings,

Chuck and Carolyn                                                     

Remember, "Take a kid to a car show", or as Bob Marquardt would say, "Give a kid a ride". Chuck
