Sugarloaf 99's

The Ninety-Nines Scholarship Registry is a collection of scholarships offered by individuals, organizations, Chapters or Sections which will utilitize one application and set of instructions. Applications are collected and forwarded to the appropriate parties offering the scholarships. The Ninety-Nines do not review or judge the applications.

Our Sugarloaf chapter has participated in the Expo for several years. I’m looking forward to being a part of it again! It’s a great opportunity for young people getting started in aviation as s career or hobby. Also college scholarship opportunities!

The Airport Owners and Pilots Association will celebrate 80 years in business in May, and its representatives want support from city officials to hold an anniversary fly-in at Frederick Municipal Airport.
