Section I - General Information
Is this a new Activity?* Are you requesting/using other City funds How many years has this activity existed?
for this Activity?*
Yes 25
Yes
No
No
Proposed Location of Activity*
Spirit of Wenatchee/East Wenatchee Rotary Hangar at Pangborn Memorial Airport/In the skies of NCW when appropriate.
Short Description of the Activity*
Display historic aircraft replica Miss Veedol in quasi museum setting; setting home to aircraft that visits regional and
international airshows and fly-ins to commemorate the first nonstop airplane flight across the Pacific Ocean in 1931,
terminating in East Wenatchee. Numerous flights in the area to celebrate events, attract crowds, etc.
Describe the Prior Success of Your Activity*
Dating to the mid-1990s the Spirit of Wenatchee raised the money and built an exact-as-possible replica of the first aircraft to
fly from Japan to the continental United States. This was the first airplane flight across the Pacific Ocean. Landing above the
Columbia River in 1931 at a site later to be known as Fancher Field, Clyde Pangborn and Hugh Herndon, Jr. put the
Wenatchee Valley on the world's aviation map. East Wenatchee would not be incorporated as a city until 1935. Most people
are fascinated with the Pangborn-Herndon story. The world's acknowledgment of this landmark flight today reflects the
success of SOW in bringing the little-remembered event to world attention.
Describe Your Target Audience*
Aviation historians are the obvious targets but the general public is a close second. Most people are shocked to know there
was a bookend flight to Charles Lindbergh's 1927 crossing of the Atlantic Ocean. The lack of publicity surrounding Pangborn
and Herndon's flight is one of history's great mysteries.
Describe How You Will Promote Lodging Establishments, Restaurants and Businesses Located in the City of East Wenatchee*
Mostly through a draw of people coming to see Miss Veedol, spending a few hours with the aircraft then taking in dinner and a
motel.
Budget for Activity* What costs will the Tourism Promotion Grant cover?*
Copy of SOW_Balance_Sheet.pdf Operational costs to maintain a seasonal airshow/fly-in schedule including fuel,
Allowed types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .doc, oil, aircraft and hangar maintenance, travel expenses for crew
.docx, .xls, .xlsx, .rtf, .pdf, .txt
What organization and staffing do you have to support this activity?*
At present we have a 12-member, all-volunteer Board of Directors. We are actively supported by a large contingent of pilots,
aircraft mechanics and interested citizens. East Wenatchee Rotary International is a close and avid supporter as are other
valley groups and institutions.
Does your organization have a current City of East Wenatchee Business License?*
Note: A grant recipient must obtain a business license. Business license information can be found on the City's website under the Business tab on its
homepage.
Yes
No
Full Description of the Activity. Expand from the above questions, such as: what it is you wish to do; the tangible and intangible benefits to the community;
visitor impact; and how you will evaluate the success of the project.*
The stated mission of the Spirit of Wenatchee is to raise the profile of Clyde E. Pangborn and Hugh Herndon, Jr. and their
contribution to aviation history through the completion of the first airplane nonstop crossing of the Pacific Ocean. We do this
through airshow appearances, magazine and newspaper articles, TV appearances. The benefits to the community are the
reactions to the appearance of the iconic Miss Veedol in the sky over such events as the Classy Chassis parade, the Apple
Blossom festivities and events in the area parks and recreational facilities.
How will you advertise, publicize or otherwise distribute information regarding your activity?*
Continue to appear in publications and TV shows and actively pursue airshow venues with large turnouts. Our standard
airshow posture includes free brochures and handouts describing current and future activities. We normally solicit donations to
purchase fuel.
Section II - Projected Tourism Benefit
RCW 67.28 provides authority for cities and counties to use lodging tax for tourism promotion to attract visitors and encourage tourism expansion. State law
also details certain reporting requirements for jurisdictions that levy a lodging tax. Each agency awarded East Wenatchee lodging tax funds will be required to
