First you meet a number of club members and get to know them.  Then you ask
the club members to host a pattern contest. Finally, when the club members
ask for help in learning about pattern, and knowing I'm no expert but have
the brain trust of this discussion group and good friends, you take a plunge
and take on the challenge. I have also been asked by the club board to do a
15 to 30 minute Power Point presentation at a club meeting on Pattern. I may
try to get a copy of the Judging Seminar DVD and scale it back for
Sportsman.

 

Any recommendations or thoughts are always welcome.

 

Evansville, IN, ERCMAC will host its first Pattern Contest July 10th and
11th. I will do the best I can to make sure those that want to try Sportsman
get the opportunity.

 

Below is an e-mail sent to our club News Letter Editor for distribution to
members (150 strong) by e-mail and to be included in our March News Letter.

 

It is a challenging task, but here we go. The seed is planted, we just have
to make sure it grows.

Howard, can you send this note out to the members and include it in the News
Letter?

 

The ERCMAC Pattern Contest Committee will have a kickoff meeting at the Mall
Show at 1pm. If you are interested in helping out please join us.

 

For those interested in learning the Sportsman Sequences and practicing for
the contest, starting Saturdays at 1pm March 27th through April 24th, I will
be at the field to assist and provide training. We will start with the
basics and work towards simulating a contest environment for the last couple
of weeks. Bring the plane you feel most comfortable with. If you don't have
a plane ready, please attend as there will be plenty to learn in the
beginning. The flying part of the training should not interfere with open
flying at the field. I will bring Lisa's Tower Hobbies Kaos 40 for demo
training flights. See ya at the field.

 

The invitation for assistance and Pattern training is open to any AMA member
from any club. Please help pass the word around. The most Sportsman I have
seen entered in a pattern contest is 9 when I attended one in Detroit. My
goal is to have 10 Sportsman from ERCMAC and surrounding clubs enter our
contest. Tony Schauberger was the first one to pre-register for the
Sportsman Class. Thanks Tony.

 

Please feel free to call or e-mail me anytime. Well before 10pm anyway.
