A reminder that our club meeting is TOMORROW, August 10 at 7pm, at the field. Our club has lost a dear friend Jack Stovall. Several of you attended the funeral service. We miss you, Jack! We have our annual Jim Coll Memorial Stunt Contest coming up next weekend. The weather forecasts are looking mixed, and we hope for the best. Mother Nature usually treats us well. In case you missed it when I found her picture, I thought I would share it again for good luck. We have a new future member, Rob who had his first test flight thanks to Skip being an AMA Intro Instructor. We received some donated hobby "stuff" from someone moving to a smaller place and we were able to get a trainer running, so Rob has what he needs to get started- next steps include that FAA registration, join the AMA and of course pay up at ESAC. By the way, my tardiness with the newsletter is due in part to my daughter having our second grandchild, which happened on Saturday. If that wasn't
work while she is out on maternity leave, so I have gone back to work in Rockville. How's that for working for an unreasonable employer! See you at the field, Jack
July 13, 2016 at the field at 7pm. The Treasurer reported $1,709.31 in savings and $2,224.53 in checking. The most important items for discussion were the upcoming Jim Coll Stunt Contest and the IMAC competition scheduled for August 13-14 and August 20-21. For Jim Coll, Dennis is on the books to serve as Pit Boss, Jack Rosemere is the CD, while Tim and family will coordinate two days of control line fun. Duane and Kenny volunteered to help as needed and Jim Cockran has the food, T-shirts and Change box ready. Jack presented a draft club brochure for review, comment and approval. The local hobby shop has been requesting something to hand out to folks when they show interest in flying things, and we decided to do a tri-fold brochure to serve the purpose. The suggested revisions will be put in place and we will place a minimum order of 500. Club T-Shirts are still in good supply except for 2XL which are all gone. (We only had a few in that size anyway-- hope the prize winners at the upcoming events are all needing smaller sizes)
