For field directions, it's 3.7 miles north of the Beltway/215 on Decatur Blvd. For those using Mapquest, use the intersection of Horse Dr. and Decatur Blvd., Las Vegas for the field. The field is approximately 1/2 mile east of that intersection on Horse Dr.

Fiesta Rancho - It's a Station Casino on Rancho
(702) 631-7000
2400 N Rancho Dr

Texas Station - Another Station Casino on Rancho
(702) 631-1000
2101 Texas Star Ln

Suncoast Casino - Rampart Blvd. Far away but about 20 minutes Easy Access to the field.
(702) 636-7111
9090 Alta Dr

JW Marriott - North Rampart - This is in the same location as the Suncoast. Easy access to the field
(702) 869-7777
221 N Rampart Blvd

Budget Suites - Lake Mead and Rancho - This is across the street from the Texas and Fiesta
(702) 638-1800
2219 N Rancho Dr

Cannery Hotel - Craig Road
(702) 507-5700
2121 E Craig Rd

Comfort Inn - E. Cheyenne Not the best area of town
(702) 399-1500
910 E Cheyenne Ave

Hampton Inn - Cascade Valley Ct.
(702) 360-5700
7100 Cascade Valley Ct

Courtyard by Marriott - This is by local hospital/health care facilities - usually used by family members getting medical treatment
(702) 646-4400
1901 N Rainbow Blvd


Sponsor list so far .

AirWild
DA
SmartFly
CustomFoamies

with many tentatives that I won't post till they are for sure.

We plan to make this a huge deal..............Food, fun, flying etc!


The North Field is not the Silver Bowl (the old TOC field) Our field is paved runway with desert that you fly over. NO marsh or tall shrubs to snag your plane.
