Aviation and automotive enthusiasts enjoy the 50th annual Kiwanis Fly-in/Cruise-in July 29 at McKinnon Airport in Sandy

Thousands of aviation and automotive enthusiasts converged on McKinnon Airport in Sandy July 29 for the 50th annual Kiwanis Fly-in/Cruise-in.

Organizers said they expected to mix between 800 and 1000 pounds of dry pancake mix to feed the crowds and raise funds for local families in need and children's programs.
