It is a Saturday only event.
You could stay at the main State Park camping area a few miles away.

Well talked with Roger Marshall today who I think is the co-founder of my local R/C field (kershaw county flyers) and he said he might stop by and do an artical for Model Aviation.

See everyone next weekend. I'll be there for sure and my mother wants to come to see what all I've been talking about lately.

Thanks again to the Sky Knights for the hospitality at yesterdays fun fly. Albeit, a little damp and windy many of us toughed it out and had a great time with friends and a fabulous lunch. On behalf of the Helihead's of Arden, NC --- Thank you !

We are always thrilled when HC and his gang attend. Sorry about the weather. Special thanks to Kim Pettit for the great BBQ lunch. ( our inhouse award winning BBQ man)
Bill, your flying shocked us, especially the one handed flying while scratching your behind.
We will start work on one of the knight 50's next week.
