Kevin, I talked to Jerry at the field yesterday and he said he would put another shelf in his trailer so we can get four planes in it. Less rig's we have to take less $$$$ for gas.

That would be great! The way gas is now I can't afford to drive to the gas station. Would be nice to stay at a hotel right there in Zilla so we are close if possible..

Joe, It sounds like Kieth is going to Olympia. Will have to see how many can go!

Where did you guy's stay last year? The last time I was there we stayed like 20 miles away in some other town. I'm not against taking a small grille and stuff to make dinners at the field and not go out to eat every meal. I need to keep cost's low so I can go to more events.

Thankyou , it will be a girl.

The flyer goes something like this......

We are planning our first ever Invitational Fly-in and Swap meet on Saturday June 21. This is your special invitaion to come and join us.
We have a great place to fly---a 300' newly paved runway, 600+ feet of closely trimmed grass to fly from plus unlimited, unrestricted blue sky---and a bunch of guys who would like to share this with your club members.

The event will be on Saturday, however, should you wishto stay over, we will fly again on Sunday.

We have limited overnight camping space with a potty. However no available water at the field. Motels are relitively close should you choose to go that route---here are a few

Holiday Inn - Lewiston 208-750-1600
Red Lion Hotel - Lewiston 208-799-1000
Comfort Inn - Lewiston 800-228-5150
Quality Inn - Clarkston 509-758-9500

As this is our "first" invitational event, we would like to here from you so we can plan for your visit. If some club me,bers will be attending, please let us know so we can make appropriate plans for lunch.

Exciting flight demonstrations!!!
We're delighted to tell you that the CoeurD' Alene Aero Modeling Society are bringing 33% to 40% IMAC aerobatic aircraft AND the Snake River Valley Modelers from Ontario Or are bringing thier four member combat team along with four different jet aircraft


Thats from the letter itself..... I told him I would try to get the 40% to come but there might be a contest sooo......

Well, Kieth was able to maiden the new Carden extra 300 mid wing yesterday! The winds were awful all day but he managed to go for it. He did an awesome job on it. The plane is absolutely awesome. The grieves pipes gave it a lot of power. Congrats to Kieth!!!!!!!

I am so jealous!!
