August 2014 Meeting

GREETINGS! Hope you are all well and enjoying this time of the  year! Many events took place in the July, most notably our first night  flight event held after the July 11 meeting. It was very well attended.  The second night flight will be held after the August 8 meeting, it  should be dark somewhat earlier, so get your planes ready and  electric powered planes only.

The Endurance and Snyder Cup Trials were also held in July with  good participation. Thank you for coming and a special thanks to  Lester Faroux for taking charge of these events and to all of you who  assisted in any way.

As we look forward to upcoming events in August, there are two  scheduled. The first is our family picnic to be held on Sunday, August  24. Chef Steve Mickel is in charge of the food and we are still in need  of a person or persons to take charge of the fun fly. Please consider  volunteering for this! Covered dishes, snacks, etc. are most  welcomed!

Our Open  House AirShow  is planned for  Saturday,  August 30 from  11:00 – 5:00. A  sign-up form  will be available  at the meeting.  To make this a  success, we  need your help  and participation. More details will be available at  the meeting.  We are invited to the Keystone club picnic to be  held on Sunday, August 17. They would like to know  approx. how many of us would attend. I will ask for  an approx. number at the meeting. Hope to see  many of you at the August 8 meeting. Thank you.
