June 2001

We are planning to discuss the Fathers day kite Festival, due's and officer appointments! Be there.. or you may find out later.. that you're the next club president!

June 8, 9 and 10 (Fri, Sat and Sunday) the Reno Rotary Rendezvous. Big show. Guinness record attempt for the most inverted hovering (radio controlled) heli's at the same time on Sunday the 10th at 900am. Huge raffle. 3-4 heli kits, radio, engines, a Realflight G2 and a lot more!

Saturday, June 16th is a BASKL kite competition at Martinez (in Ca) Let me know if you want more info.. I plan to compete (I'm trying to earn enough points to be 'invited' to the Nationals...) with quad's.. of course! ) wish me luck!!

Sunday, June 17th is Fathers day, and our Biggest (Kite) event of the year... (as I recall...) Same place, same time! (North Valley Regional Sports complex 11am - 5pm)

Yep, we'll be at Stead for our 4th annual Fathers day Kite festival. 'Come fly with us!' !!! This is planned to be a kite specific festival.. but I imagine an RC plane or two might sneak in.. any may be welcome based on the wind conditions!

June 23 and 24...SVSS.org is throwing a spring 'fling'! (radio controlled event West of Sacramento)

There will be other RC airplane based events later this year. Dates to follow in later emails..

For the last several years.. we used to fly kites after work, on Tuesday and Thursdays.

Note there isn't a 'need' for me to be there to fly.. Feel free to fly anytime, anywhere! )

I've been really worn out from work (not from getting older.. ;) and flying RC planes every day at lunch! (during the weekdays)

So I haven't started flying after work, on Thursdays on a regular basis yet...

If/when I do, I will announce it via email  : )
