Flying with Hoffner and Friends was uplifting!!

It was a little windy, but otherwise it was a beautiful night for flying above Yankton and over
the lake. All youth received their Young Eagles Certificate and we had many first time fliers.
The pilots were fantastic and made the youth feel so comfortable. The youth always look
forward to Jake and the other pilots in April. They ask all year, and then once over, start
asking again in May. Don’t mess with a good thing!! Thank you Jake and your friends for
all
you
do
for
us!!
