<br>
I've been in contact with Jeff Bellinger, the president of the Wenatchee
club...<br>
We can have a contest at their site anywhere from late May to early June.<br>
June 13-14 is scheduled for Molalla. That leaves Late May or the first
weekend in<br>
June.<br>
Ok, here's the lowdown on using their site. Since this contest would not
be a Wenatchee<br>
club activity, we would have to pay a rental fee for the use of their
site. The fee for two days<br>
is $300. That means we would have to get enough flyers to not only pay
that fee, but pay<br>
for awards, scoring costs, etc.... Which brings the total to around
$350. As long as we have<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><br>
enough entries, this wouldn't be a problem. You do the math... it would
take around $25 for entry<br>
for 15 pilots to pay for the fee. I'd hate to get into the situation that
we schedule a contest there<br>
then only have 8 pilots show up. I need a consensus of what all of you
want to do. This is a very<br>
nice flying site and Jeff tells me that he and a few of the club members want
to fly in this contest.<br>
He plans on getting his CD license. Then he could hold the contest at
that site and it would be a club<br>
activity and the site use fee would be waved. Jeff also indicated that
the club would like to keep holding<br>
contests there for years to come. This is somewhat like what has happened
at Redmond. We held one<br>
contest there and was immediately invited to continue with contests
there. This could be a good thing.<br>
As you may or may not know, we have lost our normally first contest at Sumner,
Wa. They have lost use<br>
of that flying site. This is a good opportunity to get another
contest. However, we need to support<br>
this idea if it is to work. <br>
The wenatchee site has RV sites available for $15/day, including water and
power.<br>
Dry camping is available for $5/day<br>
Send me your thoughts and we'll see what everyone wants to do... Also, we
need to decide on<br>
which weekend to hold the contest.<br>
<br>
Thanks<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><br>
