| Hi Guys,
The San Fernando Valley Flyers, with my advice has removed the Labor Day heli event from the 2008 schedule. The reasons for this are several fold. Among them, people have had problems with family conflicts during the holiday weekend, and the last few years have been brutally hot in LA in late August.
Have no fear though, out of the ashes, we are looking to start a brand new event tentatively called "LA 3-D Helicopters" - First annual. Originally, the dates proposed conflicted with the "Buzzing at the Boarder" San Diego FF September 19, 20, 21. Currently, there is a slot in our schedule for the next weekend, September 26, 27, 28. I know it would make them back to back, but what do you guys think?
EDIT ***New Dates***
The event has been rescheduled to OCTOBER 10th, 11th, 12th.
What I am looking to do is go back to the events we were having some years ago. I remember tons of vendors, cool tee shirts, lots of flying, noon-time demos, just a few fun contests and piles of raffle prizes.
Here is the link to previous events (thanks Mark). Take a look http://runryder.com/helicopter/rrTV-Photo/. I especially had a hand in the 2001, 2002, and 2003 LA “Classics”
Ideas?
