The focus in 2012 events is Celebrating 20 Years! In 1991 the construction of the Shoal Lake Airport began and in the Fall of 1991 the Shoal Lake Flying Club was organized. In 1992 the Official Opening of the Airport took place and we celebrated with aAirshow '92 featuring the Snowbirds. Much has changed in , the Shoal Lake Airport and the Flying Club have substantially changed and improved our community and our region. 20 years is a great time to look at the past and plan for the next 20 years. This will be an ongoing process and everyone's input is required!
