At right, Frank Steyn tries on Lifeflight paramedic Jeff Orphal's helmet Saturday at the Lakefield Airport fly-in. Steyn, his little sisters, Lydia and Ella were accompanied by parents Glenn and Cindy, all of St. Marys. Upon return from a helicopter ride with his father, the youngster asked if he could go again. Maybe next time his parents replied. Lakefield and the Civil Air Patrol host an annual fly-in and other events throughout the year. For more information contact Mike McCorkle at 419-268-2190.
