We encourage persons interested in the hobby to contact us and arrange a time to visit the field. We have persons available to teach you how to fly and you dont have to be a member for an introductory lesson. This is a great chance to try out the hobby and decide if it is right for you. This applies to youth and adults.
Yearly Memberships are $100.00. There is no initiation fee.
To use PayPal to pay your dues you can click here. You will then sign into your PayPal account or be given the opportunity to create a new PayPal account.

While we no longer have had issues with people flying too close to the house and barn on the west
end of the field, it is good to remind everyone......
This is especially the case with large loud airplanes.
No planes should be further west than the pole which is located 150 feet west of the west end of the runway. If you
aren't sure, have a spotter stand perpendicular to the pole and signal when your plane
comes close to the west boundary. Remember, it is your responsibility to ensure that your plane
stays within the flight boundaries.
==========================
On non-race days we can use the south (main facility) gate (when it is unlocked) to enter
and exit the field. On days when there are races, we will use the north gate. Whenever using
the north gate, make sure the gate is closed after entering or exiting the club
grounds.
