I hope you have taken advantage of the couple of weekends of good flying weather lately. I suspect it s going to be a windy spring here soon. Weather should not impact our upcoming TINY fly in though. So to all of our indoor flyers and even those who usually pass, please plan to attend and fly in this event. Please be sure to pass the attached flyer around as well. This is a great family event that all of our members should be attending. Also if you know of someone would like to help us sponsor this please let us know! We have started to get the materials together to extend the mower shed. We have determined that we will need to extend the building about four feet to the east and put the now required larger doors on the east side of the shelter. A work day will need to be scheduled for this soon. IT S TIME TO RENEW YOUR AMA & ARC MEMBERSHIP New Member Joins ARC Angelo R/C Club would like to welcome Tanner Braswell to our club. We look forward to seeing you at the meetings and out at the field! Our New Mower... * Needs some minor work * Mows a Six Foot width * Will require an addition to our shed Our OLD Mower * Is offered for sale to our members first before we offer it to the public Contact Mark Greer for price. I recently attended the Annual Georgetown Aero Modeler s Assn. swap meet. There were some good bargains however the attendance and sellers were lower than usual. Many tables were not sold. Speaking with the club officials, they were concerned. This event usually nets the club about three thousand dollars annually. See you at the meeting Thursday evening and please Fly Safe!
