END OF YEAR APPROACHING!!!
Happy “CHILLY” November. Yes, waking up in the middle of the night seeing the temperature gauge in the low to mid 40’s is Burr!!!!!  Having ever, we could be all sitting in a snow bank and digging our cars out of the snow drifts or the idea of having to put snow floats on our planes in order to take off and fly would be an interesting perspective.  Oh well, I guess we will just have to tuff it out until about 9:30 this morning and then we will be back in the high 60’s low 70’s, bummer.  More...

What a Month!

What an incredible month, warm weather, winds, pollen, fun events, and great camaraderie.  To start off the weather has been tremendous which has opened the door for some great flying as well as events.  The club held it’s 2nd General Membership meeting at the field which included the first PRCF Summer Kick-Off Auction.  We had some tremendous RC equipment, planes, helicopters, motors, engines, and of course awesome BBQ that was conducted by our own Galloping Gourmet Joe & Barbara Villarreal, Steve Kerrin, Ron Schuyler,and numerous others who stepped up to make this event so successful. In addition, this process was so much easier with a bidding/selling documentation process that Steve Kerrin and I had come with to make this process much easier.  I would also like to thank Chuck Riley with giving me a hand going through so many auction items for this process, Great Job Chuck!!  From this event we had made $887.00 which did not include the proceeds from the BBQ.  I think this event is a keeper for future events and was certainly a lot of fun. The contributors were many, Mike Jensen, Roger Cosio, James D’Aliseo, Curt from “Wild Things Hobby’s”, GLS, Chuck & Charlie Riley, etc..  just so many people to thank.

Mission Accomplished!!!!

I would like to thank the Board members for a very productive Board meeting that was conducted on January 13, 2016 with a busy and aggressive agenda for the start of the year.  With this agenda as well as action items, we were able to convey the results at the January General Membership meeting.  My hat’s off to the members who attended,  the members who greatly participated in the Model Of The Month and Creative Concept Award categories.  We certainly had a significant turnout of models, creations, unique concepts and as usual the build from the “Man, the Myth, the Legend” himself, Mr. Frank Burke with his Patriot Jet.  Way to go Frank, another beautiful build.

Hello 2016!!! I would like to wish everyone a “Happy New Year” and a great 2016 to all.  I hope that the holidays were excellent and that everyone had a chance to spend some quality time with their families and friends.   In addition, I would imagine that everyone  has now had a chance to recharge your batteries (as well as your planes) during this time off and are ready to gear up for a tremendous 2016?
