recovered both LaGuardia and Washington National.  
2. Activity Report  
Director Jones stated it's a slow climb to recover both the passengers and destinations  
we lost from the pandemic. For August 2021 passengers were up 29.2% over 2020. We  
are still at 60-65% from where we were in August of 2019. As we are a very business
