Good evening pilots!
And just like that, this years' club events are in the books. We had a FULL house and I just got the financial report from the swap shop; we had a great year! Thanks to everyone for coming early, setting up 100 tables w/ chairs and helping all of the vendors unload. Special thanks go out to Dave Pierce and George Orphan for all of their hard work putting the swap together and keeping it organized, it really paid off. Without their efforts, we couldn't pay for our field! Next time you see them, be sure to shake their hand and congratulate them on a super show.
A reminder that the November meeting will close nominations for club officer positions. The slot of social director is still seeking a home. Whomever takes this role will have a lot of opportunity to help shape the clubs' events into bigger and better things. If you have ideas to help improve the club, this may be the position for you! Or, if you have another member in mind, nominate them!
The November meeting also brings a first for the club - indoor flying! The WMAA gym is complete and will be host to us before and after the meetings through the winter. Flying will open at 6pm, pause at 7 for the meeting, and resume afterwards until around 9 (or until George kicks us out!). Meeting night flying will be free and reserved for KRAM members only. Dates are planned for Saturdays starting in December that will be open to anyone for only a $5 fee that will be donated to the WMAA R/C club. Details on those dates will be announced at the meeting.
November is also time to start the renewal process! Don't forget to bring your dues to Dan, and the AMA renewal in the mail before the end of the year so you can come brave the cold, but fun, New Years Day Fly.
Winter is a time to reflect on the past year and make resolutions to improve and change. Its time to take this club into your hands and mold it into something even better. If you have any comments or suggestions about the club, its up to YOU to bring them forward to us! No matter how big or small, or how brief or long you've been in the club, all of your ideas will be considered and could very well be carried out. The result? KRAM becomes more than just a place to fly!
Keep your wings level & altitude positive,
Nik
