[NSRCA-discussion] FW: September Pattern Contest inJacksonville, FL

[rcmaster199 at aol.com]

I know about the cemetery conversion (sigh!!). That's two fields the 
city has taken from Gateway....first was converted to a really nice 
golf course, what else.

But the city will rebuild another for Gateway, at least that was the 
promise I heard. And they do a great job with model plane fields. Costs 
were mostly handled by the city also, so the yearly cost to members was 
a scant 30$.

The same time frame was usually reserved for the club contest so to 
have OJ Stillman Memorial held at the time slot is a blessing to the 
club management........ more participation anticipated, I'm sure. Would 
love to but no, I will not come down...too far and gas cost is 
outasight. Thanks for the invite. Maybe after gas drops to normal and i 
have practiced more.

Thanks, Matt.  Are you gonna make it???  LOL  I know, a long drive...
The club is actually going to loose this field soon due to a National
Veterans Cemetery being built in the area which includes land that the 
field
is on.  The County has pledged to move the site to a new location, 
however.

If the hurricanes stay away, it should be fun!!

Tony,

I am glad to hear that the contest has returned.

For anyone contemplating going to this contest, let me assure you the
field is one of the better ones in the country. Used to be my home
field for many many years. There is a covered pavilion with tables for
setup. A pretty good size pit area and actual taxi ways (which we don't
use, I know, but it's a nice feature for the locals). A large paved
runway also. There is an office with facilities, electricity, water and
phone service. Some limited hook ups. Parking is somewhat limited
(maybe 50 cars) and is the only slight negative, if 100 people show up
(doubtful)

Hotels nearby and excellent golfing and the beach as well. Ponte Vedra
Beach and TPC Sawgrass 20 miles east, Fernandina Beach 30 miles north
and historic St. Augustine with the World Golf Village and St Augustine
Beach 50 miles south, so this could be a vacation destination for you.
Late September in north Fla is usually very nice
