Default MANY THANKS to the 2008 Huckfest Sponsors!

After a full summer of fun, friendship and insane flying the 2008 Flyinggiants Huckfest tour has come to an end. All four events this year were very successful averaging 90 - 100 pilots at each show, with spectators numbering in the thousands for each weekend!

At this time I'd like to take a minute and thank the companies who made this tour possible, and provided great raffle prizes for each of the Huckfest events.

SO..

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to the following companies for their support of the 2008 Huckfest Tour.

The companies listed below donated prizes totaling over $7500 for the 2008 FG Huckfest tour.
The companies listed below are supporting Giant Scale and 3D aerobatics, in a major way. These are companies willing to give back to the people who buy their products. So when it comes time to spend your hard earned money over the next year, please take a second to come back to this thread and take a real close look at this list, because these are the companies who took the time, and made the effort to support the Flyinggiants members and the Huckfest tour.

SO Please join me in thanking:

Dave Johnson and the entire Desert Aircraft crew.
www.desertaircraft.com

Chris Hinson and the entire Extreme Flight crew.
www.extremeflightrc.com

Ben Fisher and the entire crew 3D Hobby Shop crew.

All of these companies made each of these events a tremendous success. As Sleepy says at the onset of each of these events.... It is our duty to utilize all of these company's services as much as possible this building season and beyond. If it were not for these companies promoting the hobby as they do, we would be without a significant amount of the enjoyment these events bring forth.....

Thank You Sponsors!!!!!!! We look forward to next year!

Matt

Free stuff rocks- especially when it's from some of the coolest and most generous manufacturers in the hobby.

I buy their goods regardless of the fact they donate- quality speaks for itself. Besides, I never win, so if I want it I better cough up the cash

Thanks to you all!

Its cool all the sponsors donated so much....I think SleepyC has done a great job too being at the events and is a great guy to hang with.
Hopefully, Sleepy will get his "Guitar Chops" in shape to play with Chris Hinson and I at Joe Nall this upcoming year....

WE shouldn't forget the AMA and especially Andy Argenio, VP of district One, without him I couldn't have done it at the CT Huckfest, he spent a lot money and time, Thank you AMA and Andy.
