Message 01/2004

 

Hello All,

 

Wednesday January 14^th, 2004 was the beginning of the Interline Club of Florida. The lunch meeting was held at the Gourmet Greek restaurant, in Tampa. After introductions were made, President Poppy Shiakalli Bowen had a general discussion on the WACA Association and what it can do for the airliners. Kiki Williamson explained about the petition to IATA for retirees whose airlines are not in operation, and pointed out that it would be an excellent idea to join us. All who were present signed up. There was a discussion on ways and means to open a bank account and attract more members. Bill Moore/CO and Claudette Austin/DL were going to get together and discuss about getting the ID exemption tax form, and which bank to do business with. As soon as this is taken care of we shall look into the constitution and by-laws with Kiki Williamson’s help who has already been looking into it.

 

The next meeting is February 18^th at the International Plaza at 6:00PM.  Be sure to check the Events for Details

WACA started in 1966 in Cannes France with a group of airliners getting together.

History repeating itself and this is how the Interline Club of Florida starts in 2004!
