During the Dayton, OH contest there was a discussion to have another D4 contest over Labor Day weekend in Southern Indiana. My club is going to have an Officers meeting to discuss this. If you are interested in attending, please e-mail me direct. I will add you to the mailing list.

I'm also interested in any thoughts that this might be a "bad idea" due to contest the week before or the week after. I would not want to detract from any other contest that is currently scheduled.

Bob Kane, Matt Kebabjian and Dan Curtis-> Can you poll your districts for interest and offer your thoughts for or against?

Date: August 30th / 31st
Location: Jasper, Indiana (Southwestern Indiana)
Clubs Website: www.geocities.com/dd147546, (the field pics are two years old)
Lodging: Hotels and Camping sites within two to ten miles of the field.

Jasper is located in Southern Indiana ~20 miles north of I-64 between
Louisville and Evansville. Jasper is close to where D3, D4, and D5 meet.

Distances....

Evansville, IN - 1 hour
Indianapolis, IN - 2 hours
Cincinnati, OH - 3-1/2 hours
Dayton, OH - 4 hours

The main runway runs East-West w/ the pits to the South and is 400ft x 50ft.
Low cut rough around the runway. The flying site is located on an old
landfill. The runway grass is cut pretty short and the runway is fair. Very
open and unobstructed flying.

The club has been working very hard to keep improving on the runway for the
past two years. I have flown two different 60/90 size planes with music wire
struts, and one of them w/ retracts. Unless I had a hard landing, I didn't
need to bend the struts back.

If you are interested please reply with:
1) Name and contact information
2) The class you plan to fly
3) Your NSRCA District.

Please forward this to anyone you may think would be interested. (Especially
Northern D3, D4, and D5).

You can e-mail me @ jed241 at msn.com, or call
