Debbie Reed's Retirement

As you likely have heard by now, Debbie Reed, long-time employee and current Executive Director of the New England Air Museum has announced her retirement effective April 30.  While this will be a tremendous loss for the museum, we all appreciate her incredible 31 years of service here, and know she has earned a long and happy retirement.

So much has happened since Debbie started at NEAM – new buildings, new aircraft, more events and new and improved exhibits. One exhibit currently under construction is of particular interest to Debbie, and we would like your help in completing this project as a tribute to Debbie's service to NEAM.

The New England Women in Aviation exhibit will feature women from across the region who have had a major impact on the field of aviation through their work and accomplishments. We feel that this describes Debbie’s work as the first female executive director of the New England Air Museum, and we plan on including her story among those of other women who have made aviation history.

The New England Women in Aviation exhibit is scheduled for completion this year and is $15,000 short of the funding goal. What better way to create a legacy for Debbie here at NEAM than to raise this balance in her honor, and complete the project in her name? Your contribution to this GoFundMe campaign will go directly to the exhibit and help us achieve this goal.

Thank you for your support!
