On Saturday, February 18, 2012 the annual fundraiser Fly Away With The Bridge was held in the NEW Million Air Dallas hangar and terminal.  Last year approximately 350 guests filled Million Air Dallas for an evening of cocktails, food creations from local celebrity chefs, silent & live auctions and dancing with over $100,000 raised. This year’s Event Chairs, Janie Morris & Hamilton A Sneed were excited to continue the tradition with the theme: “A Night In the Emerald City” in celebration of 20 years of service to the North Texas community.  Click below to enter the Fly Away With The Bridge site.
