Wings Over Washington AirShow: Soaring Success in Bremerton

The skies over Bremerton, Washington, were ablaze with excitement as the Wings Over Washington AirShow took center stage this past weekend. The event proved to be an extraordinary triumph, captivating the hearts of aviation enthusiasts and thrill-seekers alike. The people of Kitsap County and Bremerton shared raving reviews. The driving force behind this spectacle is none other than Airborne Ranger <2> Dave Maestas, a visionary leader who is part of a team that orchestrates the magic of the airshow.

As the Vice President of the Tacoma Events Commission, operating under the moniker Freedom Fair, Dave Maestas is a seasoned event management virtuoso. With an impressive tenure of eight years, his expertise has led to the successful execution of various grand-scale events. Notable among these is the Tacoma Freedom Fair, a monumental gathering that annually drew a staggering 125,000 attendees, creating a carnival of celebration and camaraderie, 7 stages of live music and an airshow that stunned audiences.

The tapestry of Dave's accomplishments with the TEC extends beyond the Freedom Fair. His creative prowess has woven its magic into the fabric of the Orting Pumpkin Fest and the soulful melodies of the Gray Sky Blues Music Festival, further solidifying his position as an event maven.

Dave's influence isn't limited to festivals; his marketing agency played a pivotal role in elevating Dupont, Washington's Hudson Bay Heritage Days BBQ Competition from 2017 to 2022, shaping it into a savory delight.

Anticipation fills the air as Dave's team embarks on planning for the 2024 airshow. An invitation is extended to all Rangers, promising exhilaration and joy in abundance. The "Ranger discount" for Rangers and their families adds an extra touch of allure, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all who attend.

The Wings Over Washington AirShow not only showcases gravity-defying aerobatics but also epitomizes Dave Maestas' commitment to fostering moments of shared triumph. With each soaring aircraft, a testament to his passion and dedication takes flight, leaving an indelible mark on the skies and hearts of all who partake.
