This is cool..... I just realized the dates on the Huckfests! Here's the cool part. I've never been to a Huckfest and I'll be going to the Rockford one on the 20th (close to home & just to spectate.... My flying skills are no where near contest level etc...). Then on the 25th I'm taking a trip to MO to visit my sister near St Louis! I'll be damned if there isn't another Huckfest! So I've gone from never being at a Huckfest to seeing 2 in a row! Can't wait to see how the big boys fly! Can someone post a link to the flying site in St Louis and a physical address so I can punch it into my trusty Garmin?

You're just past me then. I'm in Wentzville, about 15 miles east of there. It will take you about 45 mins or so to get to the field.

Take I-70 east till you get to 370 (its either north or east, only one direction to get onto it, right hand exit) then take that till you get to highway 94 and take that North. Go 7 miles till you get to highway V (1 mile before V is a set of railroad tracks that are rough). Left on V. Take that about .5 mile to Marris Becket and make a right. Field down on the right about .5 mile.

Let the Huckfesting begin!!!!
