Default Re: FlyingGiants fun fly, peebles Ohio

hey guys, as far as the name i'm game for anything. as far as the public i will put it in the local papers and such so we should have a crowd. i would like to make sure this is kid orientated if at all possible. the reasoning is-kids are our lifeblood for this sport. i think anyone around the imac circles knows i bring all 5 of my kids with me to any contest i go to. i like the idea of the kid and his dad seeing a blender for the first time. if i could have seen that when i was 5 i would have jumped up and down.lol. i remember when i seen my first cl combat match when i was 3. i think my mom said i talked about it for a year. chris and i are trying to work a deal with a hobby shop to donate some guillows balsa gliders to the kids. as far as other things i have all the food, garbage, porta johns,ama taken care of.
basically i would like to see the prizes given out as drawings for who ever pays to fly at the event. basically i can put all the pilots names in a pot and then we draw for a prize. after they win a prize they can't win again until all people have won a prize. hope that made sense.lol.
as far as the other things go sleepy is taking care of the pr stuff with the donation letters and getting prizes (THANKS!!!!) and chris is helping with getting a sound system and wrangling up some help for the impound. what else do we need? lets make a list and put people on different tasks.
also someone asked about flying early.--no problem, my field is open to anybody anytime, as long as you have ama coverage. gives me an excuse to get off my butt and go practice.lol. toby....
