I hope by now that all our members have noticed how nice the grounds look at the field. As I have mentioned in previous letters; all members need to practice good maintenance while onsite. Picking up cigarette butts, empty water bottles, etc. If you see weeds… pull them. We all need to chip in. That also includes adding a few bucks to your membership renewals. The extra maintenance dollars really help our field quite a bit. Every little bit helps. Remember the field will be closed for the “One Eighth Air Force Scale Fly In” on October 18‐19. Friday the 17th, you will notice those folks setting up shop. The field will be open to our members Friday but be courteous to the activities around you.
