There's usually one day with a TON of crashes, lats year it was saturday. still a great time, and the best part is that if you do crash, you have about 100 different options to buy parts!!

I think 15amp on the flight line and 30amp at the campground. If you have a generator I would bring it. I'll be bringing the camper also.

On the site where the Jamboree is held. There is only 10 hookups for RV's. This is electrical only. In years past those 10 hookups have been taken before the Jamboree even started. I would highly suggest if you have a generator to bring it. There is one water faucet on the site where the Jamboree will take place.
There is 36 hookups at Site 2. There is also a bath house there with showers. Site 2 is about 1/4 mile from the Jamboree site.

We need to make sure we have enough golf carts. I -thought- I had reserved on last year but got burnt :( Who is heading that up this year?

Dan,
I think you have to call the company that rents the golf carts. Email Steve Kaluf at AMA. He can get you the phone number for the guy that rents the carts.
His email is skaluf@modelaircraft.org

I don't mind staying at the 1/4 mile site. Do you think I will have any problems if I get there Wednesday afternoon?
We have a motorhome we are bringing, it has a built in propane generator, but I am not sure how long it will run on one tank of propane. That is why I am curious about the hookups.
Thanks,
Todd

Mt tent has 565 air conditioning. Open 5 windows and wait for the 65mph IRCHA winds to blow thru. :badair:

Todd,
Here is a map of the AMA flying site. Sorry it is Site 3 where the 36 electrical hookups are for RV's. Site 4 is the location where the Jamboree will held. Site 3 as you can see on the map has shower facilities. I am sure there is some where in Muncie you can get a propane tank filled if needed.

Hope this helps. The USA F3C Team trials will be taking place on site 3 Mon thru Wed. before the Jamboree starts on Thursday. But I don't think they will be using any of the 36 hookup spots.

Thanks for the info guys, I have one more question, sorry this camping thing is new to me. The motorhome belongs to my father and I have barely set foot in it much less know anything about it.
Anyway, someone mentioned that there was one water faucet. Can this be used to fill up the motor home, or do we need to haul our own water up there? I have no idea how many gallons of water the thing holds but I am guessing it is a bunch. The motorhome is a 38' Monaco if that helps.
Thanks again,
Todd
