On Friday, July 5th we gathered to celebrate our nations birthday with food, fellowship, fun and fireworks! It was such a great time connecting with friends old and new, that we decided to continue the festivities on Saturday to celebrate all our neighbors with July birthdays. We are thankful for the many freedoms we get to enjoy in this great nation and the people to enjoy them with! Happy Birthday Walt, Dave, Harvey & Jeanette!
Aviation, nature, & community! These descriptors of Holley Mountain came to light again on Saturday, May 18th. Several neighbors gathered to work outdoors cleaning and beautifying our beloved community. Afterward, we enjoyed our awesome community center and shared a meal together. Thank you to all who helped make this another terrific day at 2A2!
EAA Chapter 1459 here at Holley Mountain Airpark successfully hosted a number of visitors for the
2024 total solar eclipse. Approximately 75 individuals including friends and family of airpark neighbors gathered at our Community Center to experience the likely once-in-a-lifetime event. Several aviators flew in the night before the eclipse to camp under the wing with us, while others arrived the day of the eclipse. While many flew in, others chose to drive in, including one amateur astrophotographer, who used an array of equipment to capture the celestial event. Some visitors took the time to get a guided tour of the whole neighborhood, to get a glimpse of what airpark living is all about. In the end, everyone seemed to have a terrific time, as the skies cooperated by clearing completely for the entire two-day event!
