I marked my calendar for your round-up. Planning on coming up again this year. Had a lot of fun with you guys last year. Hopefully you will have all that white stuff gone by then. Might even have a couple of guys following me up. See you then.

Hello Tom, the white stuff is gone and we even moved the event two weeks later to make sure it is warm and beautiful. We sure did appreciate your help last year. Bring as many friends as you can. Copy the flyer and put it in Ryder's LHS, there is a heli group sign-up list by the magazine rack. Lots of good places to eat in town if you make it a friends and family event. Hooters, Ruby Tuesdays, Red Mesa Grill, Apache Trout Grill, North Peak brewery and Kilkennys Pub underneath the North Peak, Chilis, Applebys, Cracker Barrel,The Bowery on the Peninsula, and many more.

looking forward to coming up. Tom said it was a good time. Pretty good when you can even convince your wife to tag along for a while.

Bring back the rotary phone so we don't have to press "1" to proceed to ENGLIGH.

Sunny Bright Blue, no clouds and looking good,

Weatherman has been mostly wrong all week. Monday turned out sunny and cool, Tuesday was great, Wednesday cleared enough
to be sky blue and I mowed grass. So get the helis, flight box, chargers, and everything else ready. We are 48 hours away from the
heli round-up. So dress warm, bring the EZ-UP tent, tables and have the helis ready. You beginners needing setup help, make sure you bring the manuals for your transmitter, governor, gyro. There will be hot coffee waiting when you all arrive with a box of pastries to help everyone wake up and shake off any chill. I even have a big tent/awning ready if the weather decides to tease us. We will have burgers and hotdogs and sodas ready for lunch and a special treat after lunch.
A special request, if you are or were in the military and have a old unit or branch of service hat bring it along. Saturday is ARMED FORCES day so show your colors if you have them. Some of the local folks will be tuning and trimming Friday afternoon so if you are around you are welcome to come on out and get things adjusted. Don't forget that AMA card, you will need it to fly at TRAMPS field. Beginners without AMA will be paired up with a club pilot with AMA to help get your heli adjusted and to get you started. Don't forget your comfy chair and camera. Let's get the summer and heli season started with a great day. Cross your fingers for Sunny and 70. Sorry about the gas situation, share a ride, we can always make it work, our
hobby is worth it. This is what we waited all winter for.
We will be out there setting up at 0900, Saturday morning so see you then.

If you have any last minute questions email me or call 231 947 3146
