    I don't think that you mentioned that they came to the museum in preparation for a production of Brigadoon that will be running from April 10 - 13 this spring at their high school. If all the kids involved in the production are this enthusiastic, it should be a great show!
    I wonder if I could make a valid case for taking my Ozarks culture class to the museum on an extended field trip?

    I was thinking the same for our Civil Air Patrol Cadets, but I can't think of any way to claim that a trip to the Tartans Museum is part of Aerospace Education.

    Matt could always do a presentation on the USAFR, RCAF AND RAF tartans!

    Geez, Matt. I wasn't going to mention the "B" word. You know what kind of reaction mention of that play gets around here.

    On our way home we toured the Western Carolina University theater department, which has a brand new state-of-the-art building. The kids couldn't stop talking about how much fun it's going to be making the costumes for the play. I'll be helping with the kilt construction and will probably be cranking out sporrans and straps as well.
