'Plan B' Will Allow For An Event At A New Location and Date

Cary Miller, the Chairman of the TBM Reunion and Salute to Veterans, has been dealing with some serious issues in trying to put together a much anticipated warbird event -- but has come up with a solution for this year.

He notes that, "It is with great disappointment that due to the rigid Covid-19 restrictions imposed by Governor Pritzker and the State of Illinois, the 2020 TBM Avenger Reunion and Salute to Veterans will not be held in Peru this year. Our committee explored every possible avenue to hold this annual event in our city. Unfortunately the current state of the Illinois shutdown prevented us from planning and giving you the premier event you've come to expect. However - All is not lost."

Miller has disclosed that Hoosier Aviation in Terre Haute, Indiana, "have graciously offered their venue to hold the City of Peru TBM Reunion and Salute to Veterans during their CAF AirPower airshow at the Terre Haute Regional Airport on July 22 through 26."

And they promise that, "All of the exiting attractions you've come to expect from the Peru show, will be featured. With the cancellation of EAA/Warbirds convention in Oshkosh for 2020, we expect to have a large turnout of warbirds. It should make for a very exciting and spectacular show. We sincerely thank the group at Hoosier Aviation for continuing the TBM tradition and we certainly look forward for its Return To Peru, Illinois In 2021!"
