Needless to say, this is the busiest time of the year at CJP. We just completed another great regional event at Mackinac Island, and if you have been sweltering under record breaking heat, it was the place to be.
Over 40 members donned sweaters and rode in horse drawn carriages while listening to safety updates from Charlie Precourt and the latest news from CJP Platinum Partners. The Grand Hotel is truly a remarkable piece of history and a memorable experience! (Check out photos from the event here.)
Next up will be an incredible opportunity to experience a private dinner under the Space Shuttle Discovery, commanded by Charlie. This Washington, DC event, benefiting the National Air and Space Museum, and CJP Safety and Education Foundation includes a tour of Mt. Vernon, VIP tours of both NASM museums, and special companion activities.
Limited to 20 Citations, the Udvar-Hazy Museum will provide special authorization for you to taxi past guards, directly to the ramp at the steps of the complex. It’s quite the scene. Once inside, Charlie provides a behind-the-scenes tour… like only a four-time shuttle astronaut (including as the commander of STS-91 onboard Discovery) can!
Have you ever pre-flighted a Space Shuttle? This is everything a space geek could dream of!
At this writing, there are just FOUR spots remaining for this unique event. For more information, click here.
And, of course, we’ll conclude CJP’s 2023 events calendar with the biggest one yet: our annual convention in Nashville, TN!
