Star Flight Museum .
“ We believe aviation inspires achievement and endless possibilities ,” Owens said . “ It did so as the Wright Brothers took to the air in 1903 , as those before us defended our nation in times of World War and it does today as we inspire our young people to build on achievements of the past and present vision .”
Owens spoke on why Lone Star Flight Museum joined the League City Regional chamber of commerce . “ Simply , we are part of the community we both serve and live in ,” Owens said . “ It was a natural fit for us .”
Owens went on to provide insight into why he feels businesses should join their local chamber .
“ All local businesses are part of the community the chamber supports by promoting and protecting local business interests ,” Owens said . “ It ’ s a great opportunity for any business to better understand the needs of the community , to network , to serve and be generally successful .”
Owens expressed how he felt League City encompasses the best of Texas .
“ Everything great about Texas can be found in League City . From great neighborhoods , to food , recreation , entertainment and business … League City has it all .” Owens gave two primary reasons for why the community should visit their museum .
