Fly-In Expo Volunteer Spotlight

Ann McKee

Ann and Bill

Ann and her husband Bill are SUN ‘n FUN Pioneers and have been providing their time and talent since almost the beginning.  Ann has been instrumental in planning so many important events, operations and activities before, during and after the fly-in each year, for as many years as some of us can remember. 

Her talent is taking a theme or plan, pulling all of the elements, manpower and timing together to make everything she does come off without a hitch, seamless and her touch always puts an extra shine on whatever she is involved with at SUN ‘n FUN!

Ann has been a chairman or a lead in a number of areas during the Expo, she has served in our VIP Hospitality areas, Preferred Airshow Seating and our Guests Welcome operations.  She has built hospitality teams to even support other areas of the event.  She is just a can-do lady!

In the past she partnered with another SUN ‘n FUN wonder-women, Suzy Eickhoff to ensure a mid-season fundraiser, The Hangar Door Canteen had several years of wonderful success.

Ann has always been one to jump in and drag us all along and make us look great and successful! She has the magic touch and we are all so lucky to have her as part of our SUN ‘n FUN family!

Ann has taken on many jobs through her years with SUN ‘n FUN…  Thank you, Ann…. For a job very well done!
