Change of August Club Meeting Well I don’t know how else to get this out except straight away. I found out yesterday that I am being sent to Miami, Florida for 6 weeks. We are putting in a new roof on the Broward County “Panthers” Arena. I fly out on the Saturday the 11th so we can be ready to receive our cranes on Monday the 13th. I was in with Dan, our owner, for almost an hour yesterday trying to figure a way I could get out of this but it just can’t be done. There in a lot at stake in this project and on a very tight time limit schedule so I really need to be there. I don’t quite know what to say as this has thrown me for another loop in my own personal time dealings which seems to be happening quite a lot lately. This months meeting will be held at Jeff's house on August 14th at our regular meeting 7:30pm time. Again, please accept my apology for this last minute upset and changes in our club meeting and Mary and I will reciprocate.RickB text/html 2007-05-08T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.controlline.org http://www.controlline.org/content/view/2/ These are the long awaited and updated Southwest Sport Speed Rules. Please read carefully and also note that these new rules will be fully adhered to and carefully monitored in all CACLC sanctioned events. For full details please click on the link below. Good luck and have a great day flying!SSS Rules.pdf (http://controlline.org/events/sssr_rules/sssr_rules.pdf)SSS Rules.doc (http://controlline.org/events/sssr_rules/sssr_rules.doc) text/html 2007-06-13T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.controlline.org http://www.controlline.org/content/view/3/ The results are in, and Orange and White will be the official club colors. Our new shirts will be light gray with a green cactus and orange plane, as well as a collar and pocket. All previous versions are encouraged and acceptable, however all new versions will fit the official color standard. I’m working on two versions of an official hat, one that is white with orange and one that is orange with white. We discussed the possibility of the club buying and stocking shirts (and probably hats) at the July meeting so that we can get a better price break on them than the small orders that we have needed in the past. We can also offer them for sale at out club contests, as a supplemental income type thing. Some clubs actually manage to cover the costs of their hats and shirts with supplemental sales. We should see a couple of new proposed designs at our August (Italian Food at Rick Baker’s Home) Club meeting.
