GOLFERS ENJOY ANOTHER YEAR
OF PLAY, DESPITE THE CHILL, FOR A GOOD CAUSE
On September 29, 2009, sixty participants made their way to GWBAA’s fifth annual golf tournament at the Herndon Centennial
Golf Course. Those that attended last year’s event no doubt remember the huge frost delay – to avoid the
cold for this year’s golf tournament, our Board decided to move the date up a month. But believe it or not the
day was actually chilly (and the pro shop sold many sweatshirts that morning)! Thankfully, the cold didn’t delay our
play or our fun We enjoyed a wonderful day of golfing, networking, door prizes, and the famous BBQ lunch.
GWBAA wants to sincerely thank those who made this year’s golf outing possible –
especially our major sponsors Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Sharp Details. Thank you to all our sponsors and volunteers
for making this golf tournament a success! GWBAA is again proud to contribute a portion of the golf tournament
proceeds to the Aero Club Foundation of Washington. The funds will be used to support aerospace education programs at
public schools in the District of Columbia.
FOURTH ANNUAL GWBAA GOLF OUTING A SUCCESS
HERNDON (VIRGINIA) CENTENNIAL COURSE REPEATS AS HOST
It dawned very cold on Monday,
October 20, but the sun came out and warmed the course and shined on all the golfers. The outside temperature
gauge read 31 degrees (F) on the drive to Herndon at 7am, so the forecast 67 degrees was a long way off. This
led to a 1hr 45 min frost delay, but everyone relaxed, enjoyed the great breakfast, had a few extra coffees, and began the
mingling and contacting in earnest. We didn’t plan it, but the delay actually brought the group closer
together, which was a big plus. A wonderful day for everyone.
There were sixty-one golfers, up from fifty last year. We thank all our
sponsors, once again, who made the golf outing possible especially our major sponsors Gulfstream, Bombardier, Welsch Aviation,
Signature Flight Support, Air Routing, and Embraer. And, we pay special tribute to Paige Kroner of Chantilly
Air, who brought all the pieces together.
THIRD ANNUAL GWBAA GOLF OUTING

On
October 15, 2007 the sun was out, the sky was blue, the course was in great shape, and over 80 GWBAA members and their

sponsored the beverage cart during play, and Gulfstream hosted a wonderful BBQ after play finished. Specialty hole sponsors

the success of this outing! GWBAA is again proud to contribute a portion of the golf tournament proceeds
to the Aero Club Foundation of Washington. The funds will be used to support aerospace education programs at public
