Just about an hour before we get started.
Lots of activity going on at the field.

Unlimited and Intermediate will fly Knowns first.
Then Sportsman and Advanced.
Unknown rounds will be next for the IMAC classes.
Invitational guys will fly their Known, Unknown and Freestyle and then after that, the IMAC classes will fly a single sequence known round.


More later.
