[NSRCA-dist8] N Idaho Contest

[J N Hiller]

The Farragut state park public flying sight that we once used is a little
tight with the road (highway 54) nearly right under the 150 M line and the
two clubs I belong to aren't very suitable.

I've spoken to Tim McGee of the 'Silverhills R/C Fliers'
(http://www.modelaircraft.org/clubsearch.aspx # 5148) who is interested in
having a pattern contest. The Silverhills field is very near Silverwood Them
Park 18 mi N of CDA ID.

A map / sky view is too large to attach but the link to AMA club search
shows the field, or search 47.897384 - 116.704931 or E-mail me & I send it
direct.

Tim has the tentative D-8 schedule & current rules. His E-mail reply
indicated that the later part of July or the first week in August works for
him. I sent him contest options, - straight TA - combination TA & Classic -
or a 1 day primer / 1 day contest (below).
Tim is a CD and could CD the event. I've explained that we use contestant
judging and need little support.

I don't know how much interest there is in the area or what kind of venue to
suggest or if we should add another event into a somewhat loaded contest
schedule. Tim and a couple members interested in flying pattern want to host
a contest.

I'd like to get some feedback on this but time is critical. Tim would like
to nail down a date next week.

What do you all think?

Jim
