Greetings! This started as a request to post an event to the calendar, which then required membership, so here we are. Disclosure: I'm not a Beech owner, just a mutual admirer of those birds. Will attempt the event post after this post.
My day job is flying peeps on large jets, the rest of the time I cram in whatever time allows after all the home chores. During 30+ years of work, raising 2 kids, supporting hubby's experimental aircraft business (long since sold), etc., all but one of the fun things I liked to do fell by the wayside. That one fun thing was the Hayward Air Rally. It kept me current in General Aviation. It kept me sane... ”Grounded” in the love of flight.
The rally starts each year in Hayward, CA. The pandemic and wildfires were huge challenges over the last 2 years, but the all-volunteer committee stayed flexible and still managed to continue the 57-year tradition. I hope you'll join us this 58th year, in June 2022, to an ol' favorite destination of Bend, OR.
Cheers all - Mitzi

Thank you, Jeanné, Yes, local 99s usually help out at each of the airports. They're very much appreciated wherever the rally goes. It's a tough balance between needing the 99s to help vs. wanting them to fly in the rally HaHa! The Hayward rally has been running uninterrupted since 1965, 12 years longer than A.R.C., though it used to be called the Hayward Proficiency Air Race. I had thought about asking the ARC folks to let their members know about the H.A.R., but the 2 events are on opposite coasts and only 3 weeks apart, so I didn't want to waste their time. Good luck to you if you do the ARC I, too, considered entering that event, but they aren't able to handicap experimentals. Maybe if they return to their roots on the West coast, I'll offer to be someone's co-pilot wink wink nudge nudge. Mitzi
