It was a beautiful day for a fish boil on Washington Island, but the problem was getting there. With severe thunderstorms covering much of the state on Saturday, only about 20 planes were able to make it to the Fly-In Fish Boil sponsored by the Washington Island Lions Club. Airport manager Dick Donelly says the annual event is usually busier on his side of things, but believes it will still be the kickoff for what is traditionally a crowded week in the skies.
Funds raised during Saturday’s events will go towards several different projects done by the Washington Island Lions Club. EAA Airventure in Oshkosh runs through July 28th.
