After 15 years our club has decided to drop 428 Pylon racing and Cub day due to poor turn out. The 428 Pylon class has been in steady decline for the past few years due to the expensive Nelson motors it takes to be competive in the class. Only 3 guys showed up for Cub day although there seems to be quite a few around. Maybe guys were doing other things that day as it was very nice. These 2 events have been replaced with a electirc fun fly which seems to be growing all over the country, and a club pot luck family fun fly. Most thought a nice day with the family at the field would be a welcome change from most of our events where every one is so busy setting up, running the event, and tearing down that we don't get a chance to relax and just have fun flying and getting to know each other's families. All in all we had a good club meeting with show & tell, a program, and of course treats at break time.
