2nd Annual ‘Just Plan Fun Day’ a Success!
Clarksville Regional Airport hosted its 2nd annual community outreach event on Saturday, September 30th from 10am-3pm. This aviation-themed, family-friendly event had free admission with a multitude of vendors selling their products and bringing about awareness of their business to the Clarksville-Montgomery County community. Food truck vendors included Pop N Dogs, Johnny & June Italian Ice, and Taco y Mariscos Jalisco so families didn’t have to leave the fun to get lunch or grab a snack. Aviation vendors included appearances from North Central Institute, Vanderbilt LifeFlight, Millan Aviation, and Austin Peay State University-Aviation Sciences program. Wings of Eagles and Middle Tennessee Aviation Academy flight schools offered discounted flights to event guests while Aeroluxe Aviation and Aviation Services Intl offered discounted helicopter rides. Our non-aviation vendors included Enterprise Rent-A-Car, The Honor Foundation, Clarksville Police Department, and Clarksville Fire Rescue. New additions to this year’s event were several military spouses and veterans who showcased their unique items and services for sale. Bouncy houses were free to all children!
“I cannot believe the turnout we had compared to last year. We estimated attendance at over 3,000 people. I personally spoke to a guest who drove all the way from Owensboro, KY who was looking forward to this day for weeks!” commented from Toni Chambers, Accounts & Marketing Manager.
