Mid America vs. Hirobo Cup

We Midwesterners have been lucky to have the HIROBO CUP 2006, 2007 in Toledo, Ohio just one week earlier than your event. So, first, has HIROBO said and have the Toledo Weak Signals said they won't be having the HIROBO CUP in the Midwest in 2008? And if they wanted to come back to Toledo, haven't you piggy-backed onto their success and crowded their event and date? If HIROBO wanted to repeat the Toledo event your Detroit event would be better placed towards the end of MAY of 2008.
If Hirobo doesn't want to return to Toledo this year, then great, your event makes sense.

JMHO.

Contact made

We have had discussions with Hirobo about our event. We spoke with them before we set our date. They said they will be involved and keep the date in consideration, if, and when, they set a date for Hirobo Cup in 08.

By no means does this mean Hirobo is not doing Hirobo Cup in 08. Please do not misconstrue my statement.

Thanks Hans!!!!!!

Thanks Hans,

We are working to make this a really good time. It looks like we will have a lot of really talented pilots attending the event. I will probably be adding to the list of feature demo pilots this week as more pilots are confirming their attendance every day.

I see you at the field soon and thanks for the support.

Things are looking good.

Things are starting to come together. So far we have a great line up of feature demo pilots with more people continuing to contact us. We are working on a website with more information and securing a hotel large enough to house everyone coming in from out of town, so stay tuned this thing is going to be big.

See you here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still going on.......

Yes we are in the final planning stages. Just wrapped a room block with an area hotel. Flyers are going out to local clubs and hobby shops this week. And the website and Hotel info will go up this weekend. In the process of confirming the demo pilots right now. The following have just reconfirmed:

I am working on contacting the other demo pilots to confirm and we will be all set. The hosting club is excited about the event and we are all expecting to have a great time.
