SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Airport Open House is the largest single event that allows non-aviators access to the airport and aviation professionals. The number of General Aviation (GA) pilots has been declining
over the last several years. With this reduction in GA pilots, exposure to aviation careers has been reduced as well creating shortages within numerous aviation specialties. With this
in mind, Open House speakers and booths have been solicited to generate interest in flight and aviation, provide information on careers available and pathways to training for these
careers.
The proclamation is requested to bring awareness to these careers to our citizens and acknowledge the efforts of our speakers and guests in providing this valuable knowledge.
Proclamation is attached.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Proclaim July 15, 2017 as Careers in Aviation Day in the City of McCall and authorize the Mayor to sign the proclamation.
