Unread post by retiredVTT » Sat Aug 01, 2015 10:18 pm

We need some bodies for a WORK PARTY to prepare the area at SHEARWATER, for our August 8th Fun Fly.

TUESDAY EVENING AUGUST 4th, 7PM is the time.....CORRECTION..6PM due to weather!

What should you bring..? YOURSELF and gloves...a broom if possible..!

Afterwards, it's burgers and root beer on the house..!

Got this from Marc C at Shearwater today....


Hi Bill -

I'm sure Vic gave you a heads up

Work Party - Tue night at 1900 hrs in Shearwater

Have folks bring whipper snippers, lawn mowers

Rubber boots would be handy as it is still a touch wet on grass


Let's answer the call people, many hands will finish off the clean up earlier..!

thanks,
Bill

Hi Curtis, ...here is how to get to the back side of the Shearwater runway, where the RC flying takes place.

Caldwell Road for about 10 Kms , where you come to a fork, turn right onto MacDonald Beach Road, proceed a couple Kms while watching for a gate on the left with a sign about "RC Flying here"...proceed up this road to another sign saying "Honk you horn twice". Turn left, proceed along the grass to the parking lot....and by golly you have arrived..!

WORK PARTY ADVANCED 1HOUR

Due to the forecast for light rain starting at 7 pm tonight, we are advancing the work party to start at 6 pm.

Our focus will be on weed-wacking the runway edges and any grass in the runway itself, plus general clean-up of the pits and runway.

Please come when you can to lend a hand and/or a tool or two. Sorry for the late notice.

Please check the link posted above for directions to the Shearwater flying field.

Thanks,
Vic

Not exactly an overwhelming turnout by HEFA last night, but I'd like to thank President Bill and Curtis for their much appreciated help in a job well done.

The field looks fantastic and is good to go for the weekend!

Thanks,
Vic
