Family history lecture and tower renovation update prompt museum idea for Logan-Cache Airport
Nancy Potter presented a multi-generational history of Logan-Cache Airport, recounting her grandfather's barnstorming and flying-service activities, involvement in early civilian pilot training and the airports wartime role. She said family artifacts and a scrapbook have been donated to Utah State Universitys special collections and encouraged preservation and public display of the airports history.

"The Hansen family descendants are so proud of Floyd Hansen's dream he made into a reality," Potter said, describing the family's multi-decade involvement, flight training for World War II pilots and the local role of the Chamber of Commerce in expanding the field in the 1930s and 1940s.

Following the presentation, board members discussed the possibility of repurposing the renovated airport tower as a museum or repository for historical displays. One board member said a multi-use historic facility concept had been proposed in past years and offered to bring that plan back to the board for consideration.

Casey updated the board on the tower renovation: the new glass was installed in time for the air show, roofing work was underway and the contractor has removed the old obstruction lights. To avoid penetration of the new roof membrane, the authority opted not to reinstall the old tower obstruction light and instead to preserve and restore the fixture as a historical exhibit. Casey reported total renovation costs of $39,292 and said approximately $8,700 of the grant used for renovation remains; staff proposed using the balance to restore the towers electrical system and clean and paint interior spaces to support a museum function.

Board members asked staff to consider accessibility and public access implications for any museum concept and to pursue additional grants or fundraising for further restoration work.
