Women's Air Racing is Back-Take 2

I'm excited to announce (again) that Susan Field and I, Joyce Parker, will be flying the 2022 Women's Air Race Classic!!! YAY!!!  We are flying as "Team Midwest Bess" since both of us hail from the great Midwest of America: Algonquin, IL and Topeka, KS and Bessie Coleman lived in Oklahoma and spent many years in Chicago!!!
This will be Susan's 1st year racing, and my 4th 'attempt'.  We met on the ARC Blogspot in 2020. Unfortunately, the 2020 air race was cancelled due to the pandemic.  However, when we learned that the 2022 air race would go on, we reconnected, resurrected Team Midwest Bess, and here we are!!! Though we are currently residing 500 miles apart, we've already started our planning and "strategizing!" I will be bright and early online on January 3rd, 2022, when race registration officially opens, securing our spot in the competition as "Team MidWest Bess - Classic Racer 37"!  We are looking forward to an amazing race in 2022 and I'm honored and thrilled to be racing with Susan in her beautiful Piper Dakota - "Charlie!"
