Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year to all Eugene R/C Aeronauts, and also GO
DUCKS, that was a great Rose Bowl.
I don’t have much, but I do have some news to pass on. It’s that
time of year that most of us normal flyers stay home and fly our
simulators. For those of you that have the Realflight RC simulator I
have some good news. Starting with the newest version of the simulator
the Eugene R/C Aeronauts flying field will be part of the program. You
can stay home like me and still fly at our field as much as you want.
I also got Great Planes to donate a new simulator to the club that I
was thinking we could raffle off at the February pizza meeting. I was
thinking it could be a door prize just for coming to the meeting but we
can talk about it Thursday night at the club meeting.
That’s all for now, hope to see you at the meeting or at the field.
Regards, Brad S.

PRESIDENTS
CORNER, January 4,
2012
The 2011 year was a great
year for our club! The events we sponsored were well attended and
everyone seems to have a great time. The new signage increased
the number of spectators dramatically over past years. Our field
was in great shape all year and I express my appreciation to all those
who worked to keep it green, mowed and well maintained. Great Job!
The club officers are working on the 2012 proposed budget
to present at the club monthly meeting. It is always a bit
concerning, this time of year, with the number of members who have paid
their 2012 dues. A strong membership number is key to continued
operation and improvement of our facility.
I
made an attempt recently to clean off my desk and office. I was
about to discard a handful of old RC magazines when I remembered a
recent discussion at one of our monthly meetings about increasing RC
exposure. What a great idea it is to drop a few used RC magazines
at your work place break room, doctors and dentist office, or other
public locations. Last year, I gave a work friend a couple of
magazines and he has just purchased his first RC helicopter and is a
member of a neighboring club. If we all do a little something to
introduce this great hobby, it will keep our club and this sport strong
and healthy in the future.
I am
anticipating an even better year in 2012. Can’t wait for dryer
warmer days ahead! See you at the club meet or at the field –
soon I hope!
