We had our Grand Opening Aug. 16 and it was a tremendous success, we had a
great turnout of fliers and everyone seemed to be excited about the new
field and its configuration. It was nice to see the enthusiasm of our
members enjoying our new field. I would anticipate that the new field and
our new surroundings will rid us of the problems of our previous
confinement at Manatee Field. Our new location now offers us two 600' by
100' runways which will accommodate flying from electric to giant scale.
It is with great pleasure that this field has come to realization and that
the old days of wondering what our future will hold are now visible in this
new contest ready field.

ANNUAL MEETING - Our annual meeting will be held Aug. 30 at Erin's Isle
which is located on the corner of Collier Blvd. and Manatee Rd, you have
passed it everytime you went to the old field. Meeting begins at 10 AM.
This is a most important meeting and I ask that all members than can to
please attend. Elections will be held for both the Executive Branch and the
Board of Directors. This is a tender moment as our club evolves from a
passive flying site to a business operation now that we have substantial
rent and expenses. It is of the utmost importance that our next
administration be prepared to operate this field in a prudent manner to
ensure its long term success. Again, I ask you to please attend this most
important meeting so that everyone's voice can be heard. Thanking you in advance,
Ray Fitzgerald, President
