A STRATOSPHERIC THANKS TO RICK BAIRD
This month, Friedman Memorial Airport Manager Rick Baird is retiring, ending a 25 year run serving our community in this very important role, and others, at the airport. Rick's contributions are a mile-long, and our entire community has benefited from his efforts. For commercial air service this includes working with Carol Waller to form the original Sun Valley/Ketchum CVB's Blaine County Air Transportation Advisory Committee in 1998, which later morphed into the non-profit Fly Sun Valley Alliance organization. He has been committed and involved all along the way.
Rick has long recognized the importance of the airport and air service to the entire Wood River Valley region, and has actively worked, through many challenges, to continue to ensure that air service access will survive and thrive here. We are so grateful for his years of extraordinary leadership and aviation expertise. Please join us in celebrating his many incredible accomplishments and giving him due thanks at his retirement party at the airport on June 16. (see invitation below)
