 Hi everybody. Saturday July 16 is our scheduled day for our club fun fly. We will have food and a good time. I’m sure we will need volunteers to burn hot dogs etc. More details later.   Tim Seelye

On Saturday August 6th our Polson neighbors are hosting a fun fly, "Wings for Wishes", to benefit the Montana Chapter of Make-A-Wish. The event runs from 9 AM to 4 PM with registration and field opening at 9 AM. There is a $10 landing fee, and a current AMA membership card is required for flyers. The event will take place at their new field located approximately 1 mile East of  U.S. Highway 93 South of Polson on Minesinger Road near its intersection with Farm Road. Minesinger Road intersects Hwy 93 at the Jolly Pack Rat. Planned events include 25/50-foot balloon Pop, Paper Chase, Climb and Glide, a T-Rex 450 R/C helicopter silent auction, and more... There will be a full concession stand at the field. Event contact is Eric Kendall at (406) 675-4144.
