<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Normally
the Columbus Pattern contest is the 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>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>As
far as I know, the date for the Columbus 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>
