Thanks to all the current board members, you are greatly appreciated!
upgraded website.
After evaluating the benefits and costs of a new website, our board approved this new website on October 1st 2025. We hope to bring more attention to our club as well as provide better content management and a more responsive site for phones and tablets. Since it is much easier to change the content and structure of the new web site, we hope to redo the site to better attract new members to the club – suggested by J.R. Sitman. Victor Newton developed the original website many years ago which was enhanced by Dennis Spanogle. Dennis has developed this new site in WordPress.
OUr Treasurer has resigned
Charlie Palmer who has served as Treasurer for many years is stepping down effective November 1st, 2025. Charlie has not only done an outstanding job as Treasurer, but has performed many functions normally performed by a Secretary or President. He has maintained the club’s membership, helped members with their registration and login issues and made changes to the website content when no one else would. Thank you Charlie!

Sept 6th BBQ Fun Fly
We had great weather and a good food! The flight line was very busy all morning!
Thanks to David Kvech, Marlin Smith, JR Sitman, and everyone who donated their time to make this happen!
Donations at the site came to 81 dollars and with what was donated at the ARCC meeting last week the cost of this event was pretty much a wash! Thank you to everyone who donated!
