Kids at Fly-By?

[shasta mcnasty]

My 13-year old daughter will be riding pillion at MPFB this year. Anybody else bringing kids?

[shasta mcnasty]

Nobody, huh? Was hoping my daughter would be able to find a friend her age to talk to in the evenings, rather than hanging out with us old people!

I've been attending this event for over 10 years (every year since 2000), and I only remember seeing kids there a couple of times. I think it was MI Squad member JT Pedersen that had his daughter with him a few times.

There might be other people at the hotel with kids, and there's no shortage of people acting like kids

Isn't that the truth?

Isn't that the truth?

Yeah, what my brother said.

[shasta mcnasty]

Yeah, I know it's a longshot--this is my fifth MPFB. I guess it's just us crazy MI squadron folks bringing the kids along...both JT and Jim House have done so in the past! Just trying to get the average age of squadron members down...

Just trying to get the average age of squadron members down...

Well, hopefully my addition to the Squadron helped, as I'm still just 29 (mentally) but pushing mid-50 calendar wise. See you soon.

I'm generally the youngest guy by a good margin at most events I've attended with a few exceptions. I don't mind it I find that I enjoy converstaions and time with folks older than me and get along with them better to boot. I figure most kids (especially teenage girls) wouldn't enjoy a typical MSTA event. But I've been wrong before.
