rain forecast for the old date, year in and year out. Seems it ALWAYS rained on
that weekend. A change of dates is a good thing that might boost the attendance
back up. The other factor affecting all the contests is the economy and we’re
just going to have to ride that one out.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

first weekend in June and the D4/D5 Shootout is the second weekend in
June. Well, Dave Johnstone just found out that the D4/D5 shootout has
been moved to June 5 & 6<sup>th</sup> due to the XFC. That weekend
conflicts with the Columbus contest and also the D5 contest. Here are
some possible solutions:</span><o:p></o:p></p>

contest is flexible and so if the date of the Hebron Contest (tentatively May
15<sup>th</sup> and 16<sup>th</sup>). The sun is in the box until 11 am
or so in late May so it may be difficult to get 6 rounds in on Sat or Sun so
having Monday as a backup maybe helpful (thus the reason for the Memorial Day
weekend). AMA has RC events scheduled for late may so we would have to
share the site thus the reason for 2.4 only.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
