Hi John,</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
thanks for distributing the proposed schedule; it has been eagerly anticipated throughout D-8. However, I must report to you that our club members were surprised to discover that the Medford pattern contest was moved from 23/24 April to 9/10 July. As you may
remember, I sent you a link to the Rogue Eagles event calendar on 16 December, indicating that we do not have a lot of open dates for a pattern contest.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
I realize that you are concerned about weather issues here in April, but 9/10 July will not work for us. Our club has about 130 members who enjoy a wide variety of activities during the summer months, and we have two events (a pylon race and a rocket launch)
scheduled that weekend. Additionally, D7 has a contest scheduled at OCMA (Steve Hannah) on the same weekend and published their calendar in December, so our contest could not be a D7/D8 shootout.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Thanks,
<div>Sean</div>

Hi all, after talking to the Cd's here is a tentative contest schedule for<br>
the<br>
year 2022. This schedule took into account the weather conditions for each<br>
contest venue. Last year we had weather issues at some contests and this<br>
schedule will hopefully rectify those issues. We will also have the D8<br>
championship at a central location in Redmond as they have lifted the 400 ft<br>
requirement.<br>
<br>
The opening contest will be at the Tri Cities, WA location. Bill Bowen has<br>
agreed<br>
to host the judging seminar at his contest. I will run the seminar which will<br>
start at 8am on<br>
Saturday and finish at noon. The seminar will include active panel judging of<br>
each and every class. Up to 6 judges will judge each demo flight and an<br>
active<br>
discussion will occur after the flight. We did this at the Boise contest last<br>
year and it was very successful as a learning tool. We will need at least one<br>
pilot from each class to fly their pattern and be judged. The main contest<br>
will start at 1pm after lunch and fly 2 rounds on Saturday and 4 rounds on<br>
Sunday.<br>
Please visit the NSRCA site and review the judging criteria and re-certify as<br>
a judge.<br>
<br>
Schedule:<br>
<br>
May 21/22 Tri Cities, Washington<br>
June 25/26 Boise ,Id<br>
July 9/10 Medford, Oregon D7/8 Shootout<br>
July 23/24 Redmond, Oregon<br>
August 13/14 Becks field , Oregon<br>
September 3/4 Mollala, Oregon<br>
September 24/25 Redmond, Oregon D8 Championship contest<br>
<br>
Thanks to all<br>
John<br>
