Its that time once again! Great turn-out last year (30) despite being an opening year of the contest and had a conflicting event last year nearby! Expecting even more this year! Here are the details!

Entry fee $30 for IMAC members, $35 for non-IMAC members.
Camping onsite is available, no hookups for RVs. Please email me if you plan on bringing an RV so we can plan accordingly (john_banks@hotmail.com).
Field will be available for practice Friday. CD (John Banks) will be onsite Friday, spotters required on Friday due to full scale traffic possibilities and nearby Danielson Airport.
Food will be available onsite Saturday and Sunday.

Nearby attractions for family/spouses include Mohegan Sun Resort and Casino, Day Pond State Park, and Old Sturbridge Village, Sturbridge, Mass.

Guys, I have been approached by Bill Lairsey who said that if there is interest, he would like to run a mini-judging seminar the friday evening before the contest. Anyone interested in having a small seminar before the event?

Hi John,

I think I may just be able to make this one this year. I'll pre-reg when I'm sure that I can make it.

I don't know though, I may need more runway than 2200 feet

Lookin more and more that I can make it. I've done the pre-reg thingy. I'll probably be there early Friday since it looks to be about a 6.5 hour drive (close to 340 miles according to the GPS, Mapquest and Google Earth then go hit the hotel around lunch to get checked in and come back friday afternoon.

I know that will not happen again for sure at woodstock. I need to practice unknowns so it will help me. I am starting to collect unknown sheets.

I think Stan has him beat though with the snap he did that wasn't part of the sequence down at Lums Pond.
