Does anyone know if there will be a Kolb homecoming fly-in this year or if there are any fly-ins scheduled this fall. I found a mention of the Naugua Fly-in posted last week but no other info was mentioned.

Hey Mic,
Yep, we are having a gathering here the weekend of Nov. 11, 12, 13th. It is pretty much an informal gathering of Kolbs and assorted light planes. Right now committed to attending:
2 Kolbs from Alabama
2 Kolbs from Louisiana
1 Kitfox from Mississippi
1 Kolb from Texas
1 Rans from New Mexico
1 Highlander from Texas
Handful of folks driving in or flying commercial from as far away as Oregon!!
(I've left the names off on purpose. Not appropriate for me to advertise folks business on internet. Up to them to volunteer.)
This gathering was pretty much started by John Williamson and John Hauck. They called me from Sun-n-Fun one year and said "here we come!" We take care of the feeding and watering. We have a FBO/hunting camp to entertain in. November should be a lot more comfortable temp wise. You have the option of tent camping, local hotel, or some folks get adopted for the weekend by local community of Starhill.
Nauga Field (LS35) is is a short grass strip. Runway is 1500 feet with trees and powerlines both ends. You have to be short field proficient. False River Airpark (HZR) is located 10 miles west of here for those that want to attend in non-STOL planes/pilots. We can make arrangements to shuttle to/from HZR. A brand new bridge across the Mississippi River makes that a lot easier. Nauga Field is about 22 sm, north of Baton Rouge.
The food is typical South Louisiana. Jambalaya, wild hog, etc. Most people enjoy but we can adapt to special diets with some advance notice.
I know it is a long way from Oregon. Right now, two other folks from Oregon have committed to attend. One is USAF, stationed in North Louisiana. Oregon will be well represented if you decide to come!
I'm reluctant to "toot" my own horn about how much fun we have. It is a simple eat, laugh, and fly gathering. Just about everybody that attends, comes back. Don't know if you bump into Arty Trost up there, but if you do, she can "enlighten" you on what we have to offer here.
Let me know if you need more info. There will be more info and updates as we get closer.
