Clover Creek Aerodrome 1st Annual IMAC Challenge

[Gil R Major]

The Clover Creek IMAC Challenge is only a month away. 68 pilots from 5 IMAC Regions are coming to Toone, TN to enjoy Tina and John Schroder’s hospitality at the Clover Creek Aerodrome.

An OPEN IMAC Event will provide lunch Friday and Saturday to all registered pilots along with a Saturday night BBQ (a nominal fee for all others). Unknowns will be flown each day. For those of you eligible for the IMAC Senior Points Series there will be a Senior Division award. Freestyle will be flown in 2 separate Freestyle classes – Basic, Sportsman, Intermediate, and Advanced, Unlimited with awards for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd.

Please, while flying at Clover Creek Aerodrome we ask you utilize a catch bottle to retain you overflow fuel.

On site camping (no facilities) is available on a 20 acre well maintained field behind the flight line or primitive camping down by the river with a short walk to the swimming pool to cool off in evenings.

Come join our gracious host for a great 3 day IMAC event. Pilots meeting 730am Friday morning.

As you know Saturday night John and Tina are hosting a BBQ for all registered pilots. What we need to know is how many additional BBQ tickets each pilot will need to purchase for family, guest, and helpers?

Please email the number to me at gilrmajor@gmail.com so we can make sure no one misses out.

Tina asks - please bring pool & bath towels.

There will be open practice all week 10-6 as John needs to cut the grass each day.

Pilots, please remember your FUEL CATCH CANS so we do not kill the grass while fueling and moving our planes.

Pop-ups are welcome along the fence both sides of the hanger. No reservations required. Last year we had 60+ Pop-ups so there will be plenty of room.

Remember 2 Freestyle Classes – 6 Freestyle Awards – don’t forget your music and please update you registration on the IMAC site if you plan flying Freestyle.

730am PILOTS MEETING Friday morning. 8am Planes in the air.

I have recieved a few emails asking the same questions, and looking back through the post I have not provided the information very well. Here goes -

The contest entry fee for IMAC members will be $50, which includes the contest, lunch for registered pilots on Friday & Saturday, and a BBQ Saturday evening.

Guest tickets for the BBQ will be $20 for adults & $10 for kids.

There will be a food concession providing food and drinks during the day.

There is no Charge for Contestants to camp.

Don’t forget 730am pilot’s meeting Friday morning.

Anyone know the best way to get there, coming from Memphis?

[arrow66X]

We came via hwy 64 last year.
Watch out for a town named Oakland.....it's a speed trap! They got me going 46 in a 35...I told the cop the sign I just passed said 45, and he told me it was still 35 until I passed the sign and gave me a ticket. First one I ever got that I didn't deserve

[John Schroder]

Rte 64 east to Whiteville,,100 north towards Chickasaw park approx. 10 miles,,left on 138 in Toone,,right on Hill House rd at mile marker 5. Air show signs will be up Thursday.
Watch out for the speed traps in towns along the way.

A couple of the Florida pilots made it up last night and are out practicing already!

see you soon,
John

I arrived at Clover Creek this afternoon. We have 6 pilots already signed in, all from central and south Florida.

The field is in great shape, but then what else would you expect.

John and Tina have out done themselves.

Remember - Open Practice daily from 10-6. We are signing everyone in as they arrive to hopefully make things easy on Friday morning.

Pilot's Meeting Friday Morning at 730am, airplanes in the air 8am.

Whatever you may have heard about Clover Creek does not even begin to do it justice. John and Tina have created an RC Pilots dream. The runway is manicured to perfection as is the entire property. First class act all the way.
