Im writing to extend a big thank you to the town of Buena Vista, and to my dad, David Butler, a longtime resident of the area. My son, Nicholas, recently graduated with honors from Seneca Valley High School in Harmony, Pa. in May. He plans on studying Aerospace Engineering in college. <\/p>\n
His love of all things aircraft, flying and space began in your town, 1,500 miles from where he lives. Sure, the incredible scenery and the friendly people of the area are what endeared Buena Vista to my son, but it was the time on the airstrip of the Flying Club with his grandfather, for as many hours as his grandfather could stand, that cemented his interested in aerospace. This time in Buena Vista has shaped his future. <\/p>\n
Im extremely grateful to all who have supported the Flying Club, who have assisted with the upkeep and maintenance of it, and who have vocalized their joint interest and appreciation of this hobby. <\/p>\n
My dad has been a long time club member and has spoken at your high school about it, and is the first to offer help to those on the field. <\/p>\n
My hopes are that many other young people can be inspired by the opportunities made available and supported by the town of Buena Vista. <\/p>\n
Again, thank you to the town for supporting this interest, and thanks to David Butler, the best grandfather my son could possibly have. <\/p>\n
