ELLIS CON XXI was a success.  Over 120 people present with five dealers.  The club earned over $1,000 to help pay for our annual trip to West Point.  Many thanks to our gamemasters and to volunteer adults: Justin's mom,  Mr. Knisbaum, Mrs. Shields, Mrs. Omerod, Mrs. Haskell.

 

The trip to see two World War II US bombers, the B-17 Flying Fortress and the B-24 Liberator, as well as a P-51 Mustang fighter was a success.  Besides a walk-through of these four-engined bombers, we  watched the B-17 warm-up and take off and then had a fast-food -lunch.     You can check them out and other planes at the Collins Foundation, located in Stowe, Mass.
