I plan on attending every D8 contest in 23. Also, Karl, I'll be happy to split making the awards for each contest with you.
Thanks,
Sean

Well, we need to figure this out.  Right now Medford is a go for the D7/D8 Shootout on September 23-24.

Can we put together a contest in Richland, Redmond and say Mollala?  Maybe a shortened season, a contest once a month – June, July, August, September?  I am OK not having a Boise contest.  A lot of the logistics can be done from a distance as long as we have a field to fly at.  Also, can look at one day contests, Saturday only.

Like I said earlier, I am willing to help organize.

We need people to chime in here.  Are you in or out?  Who will commit to attending?  Who can do little jobs?  Heck, I can do the awards for each contest.

What are the other concerns?  Who are the point people at the clubs to contact?  Are there clubs and sites that we should contact other than the usual historic ones where contests have been held in the past?

Are there people that need to be added to this email list?

Let's get going!!!

Karl

Thanks as well Karl. My primary concern is, will we have enough of a turnout to support the number of contests we’ve had in the past? Or, even with a reduced schedule if that’s what we decide. Beck’s field probably won’t be available next year and even if it was there isn’t enough manpower available locally to do all the things needed, awards, food, water, etc. to set everything up. How many clubs will tie up their field for most of a weekend for a handful of pattern jocks? there are several other concerns that I have but those are the major problems.

Thanks, Bob Crump

Hi Karl,

Thank you very much for doing this 🙂🙂🙂!

As discussed with John and Rex, I plan on holding the Medford contest (and D7/D8 Shootout) at its traditional date of 23-24 September again this year. Jerry Budd, the D7 VP, has it listed on their proposed schedule.

Wishing the very best to all of you for the holidays!

Thanks,

Sean

Hello all,

So, can we cobble together a pattern competition schedule for next year without a District VP?  I am willing to organize.  Who are the potential CDs out there.  Send me dates, I can start to put together a calendar.  I sure would hate to see us give up on any events for next year.  Gotta fly!!!  Or else I will have to join D7.

Karl

Subject: Solicitation for new NSRCA D8 VP

Hi John,
below is my proposed email for soliciting a new VP. Please check/correct the listing of previous VPs at the end of the email. I'm fine with any changes you would like to make to the email.

Thank you, John, for your hard work and dedication, not only as the NSRCA D8 VP, but also as the keeper of the scoring system and for improving it with upgrades that dramatically increased its reliability! Thank you very much!!!

One of John's emails a few weeks ago let all NSRCA D8 members know that he is looking for a new VP. At that time, he believed that Igor was interested, but Igor has since changed his mind and has withdrawn his candidacy.
John wants to make sure that we all know that handling, transporting and manning the electronic scoring system is not automatically a responsibility of the VP.
The main duties of the VP are:
Good communication with D8 members.
Representation of the district within NSRCA by attending a monthly zoom type meeting and submitting periodic articles for publication in the K-Factor.
Coordinating the D8 contest schedule.
So, if you are up for a challenge and don't want pattern aerobatics to disappear in our district, go for it, and submit your candidacy to John!
Many of our pilots already have served as the D8 VP: in addition to John, I can think of Pat, Karl, Art, and Rex. Thank you to all of them for their hard work and dedication to our hobby!! FYI, I served as the D7 VP before moving to Oregon.
Wishing you all the best for the new season, Sean
