Welcome
MASA 2010
MASA exists to provide hospitality for the IAMA (International Association of Missionary Aviation) member attendees to the EAA AirVenture Convention each year. We accomplish this goal through the generous partnership of various churches and individuals throughout the Greater Fox Valley, Wisconsin

Change is in the air (along with airplanes :))
MASA leadership has been busy since last EAA. After two weekends of training in policy governance led by David Green and Rick Kindschi, a new MASA board has been formed. The board worked together to write policy that will guide the MASA ministry in the future.
The Board includes: Bob Ronk Chair, Mike Ott, Vice Chair, Dan Holdridge, Sec. also on the board are Larry Creamer, Les Ison and Terry Montambo. Lee Smoll was appointed Executive Director.

Re-alignment of the leadership team
It is the goal of MASA leadership to divide the duties so that no one is over-burdened with responsibility. Lee has contacted interested people and has put together the following teams which met together for the first time on May 3rd.
Volunteer for a team
Each team leader will be responsible to assemble their own team/committee to work together in preparation for, and at, AirVenture. This will eliminate the need for our monthly large-group meetings and should allow more flexible and efficient communication. Please use the response form under the "Contact Us" tab above, to ask questions or volunteer for one of these teams.

Mission Aviation and Humanitarian Aviation at AirVenture 2010
The IAMA exhibitor tent will be located in the same location as in '09. It will include many of the story-boards that were a part of the Fly-4-Life feature last year. In addition, the EAA is giving us an information table in the Member-Village tent that we will share with the folks from the Humanitarian Aviation organizations.
Hospitality Site in Camp Scholler
We are trusting that we will be able to rent the same location that we occupied last year. A large white pole tent featuring one dining room is in the planning which should be able to seat the 200 plus expected guests.
