Florida Airboat Association 3rd Annual Airboat show held on East Lake Fish Camp, at Kissimmee, Florida. This is where FAA shows our Proud Airboating Heritage to the General Public. Promoting our Lifestyle to the good People of the State of Florida. This is one fundraiser that has proven itself time and time again. But this is also a chance to bring people that don't have airboats to go for a ride or just look and touch one, so they can learn all of the good things we do. This show will offer the people in Central Florida something South Florida has had for 20 years. Mark your calendars for October 3rd, and it will be an event of 2009 not to miss out on the Airboat Show, auction, music, and fun.
