With this being my first Na onals as a Contest Director I’m excited to see many of my old friends and I’m looking forward to making new ones. This year’s event will have plenty of racing and some great a er race ac vi es, so we can all sit around and tell each other how we almost won earlier that day. Our Welcome Party will be held at the race site with Jim Feener providing the spirits and we have some great food planned.

2017 NAMBA NATIONALS Page 7 Our hearts and prayers go out to the city of Las Vegas and all of those touched by the recent tragedy.
History of Sunset Park
The land that the park is on was first developed as a ranch in 1900 by John F Miller, who owned Hotel Nevada ‐ one of the first casinos in Las Vegas. In 1939 the ranch was sold to J. Kell Houssels Sr, who owned the Las Vegas Club Casino. Houssels turned the ranch into the Vegas Stock Farm where he bred and trained thoroughbred horses. Though he was a successful gaming pioneer in the city, the racehorse farm was his passion. In 1963 Houssels sold the ranch to Wilbur Clark (owner of the Desert Inn Casino) and a few other investors. Clark County eventually purchased the area in 1967 and turned it into Las Vegas’s first city park. The park today is 324 acres in total size and in addi onal to the pond/RC boat ramp it contains:
9 so ball fields several miles of walking paths dog park
2 li le league fields fitness course 7 sand volleyball courts
8 basketball courts splash pad 8 tennis courts.
5 playgrounds disc golf course
It’s rumored that the park le more than 200 bodies buried in the area before construc on, but there is no evidence that a cemetery was ever on the site.
The pond is 14 acres in size and between 10‐12 feet deep. Besides being where we race it’s also home to various species of fish, stocked weekly 35’ MOAI with rainbow trout between November and STATUE March and monthly with channel ca ish from April to October. Originally a pair of statues In 1980 William Benne (of Circus Circus fame) that sat donated $66k to the country for improvement of outside the the model boat facility, which paid for the entrance to following: the Stardust Shade shelter (which we s ll enjoy today) casino, for the Drivers overlook pla orm Aku Aku Paved entrance road restaurant.

Want to WELCOME you to the
2017 NAMBA Nationals NAMBA Hall Of Fame
NAMBA International traces its roots to 1972 and continues to grow each Myrtle “Mom” Coad - 1981 year. This growth can be attributed to the efforts of dedicated members willing to sacrifice their time, talent, and ideas for the promotion of model Donald C Coad - 1981 boating. The Hall of Fame is not a popularity contest nor is it politically Gary L Johnson - 1981 motivated. Induction into the Hall of Fame is an honor and recognizes Al Metelak - 1981 members who have provided significant contributions to the growth and George Campbell - 1981 development of NAMBA. NAMBA International is proud to honor its members who have served/continue to promote model boating. Their John Broadbeck, Sr - 1982 contributions are varied and encompass all areas of the hobby. They have Jerry Dunlap - 1982 helped make model boating and NAMBA what it is today.
