Default NC Regional Finals at Wheeler

First, I would like to thank all of you that have pre-registered. That is a big help and very much appreciated.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone, however, not looking forward to the end of a great season here in North Central. This has to rate as one of the very best seasons ever. Great flying from Basic - Unlimited and some " OUTRAGIOUS " partying. We need to do it one more time before you guys invade the TAS.

Thanks "Big" Lew

Lew,
Is there anything I can do to help for the contest, bro? I'll do what I can if you need anything. I have an extra EZ Up if you need one and might have some extra fold out chairs laying around...let me know, bud.

The field is one of the best I have ever flown at Also it faces north. Great for this time of the year as the Sun is getting lower everyday in the south.

We actually face East, but the morning sun isn't that much of a problem this time of the year. It may delay us a few minutes but probably not. The club members are looking forward to this event, especially the Hog Roast. Thanks for the offers of assistance and I will take most of you up on that as the days progress. This is a learning process for me also.

Thanks Wayne for your input and work to make this happen, but if it's a bust, I'm putting all the blame on you. You really can't do this without a tremendous amount of help. I want to thank Bob Hudson, NC Director, for his help in making this possible, visiting the field this spring and his words of incouragement.

For info visit the Imac website www.mini-iac.com (pre-registration is in the upper right hand corner) or email me at lshfld@aol.com
