Happy New Year! Welcome to the new web site, if you notice any problems see the bottom of the page. Hopefully this one will load faster. Also a reminder to let me know of any news that needs to be here. Thanks
We have gone back to a combination lock on the main gate, the combo is on the back of your club card. Please return your old key.

Due to a scheduling snafu with the PUD auditorium the meeting in January (only) will be on the FIRST Thursday of the month, next month will be back to the normal second Thursday of the month.

We had a larger than normal group at the annual first fly of the year. Dick Robb had the honors of the first flight of the year. The weather cooperated long enough for everyone who wanted to, to get a flight or two in.
