RCCD Labor Day Weekend There will be open flying on Saturday, although some guys fly on Friday too, and fun-fly events organized by Bob Chapman on Sunday. For lunch, cook-out eats and soft drinks will be available for a donation on both Saturday and Sunday. Weather permitting, a bunch of us usually sit around a fire after the Saturday dinner and swap lies....er....stories. We'd love to hear yours too. We will be treated to a great dinner out at the field on the Saturday evening. If you have attended in the past, you know what a great time this is, not to mention the great deal we get on the dinner. If you haven't, just ask anyone who has. The dinner is just $8.00. To assist with catering, please let Rainel Veres know if you will be having dinner with us (you are nuts if you don't!!). You can reply to her by e-mail, or give her a call. __________________________________ Club Meetings - 1st & 3rd Thursdays

The Radio Control Club of Detroit is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and advancement of model aviation as a hobby. We invite all types of RC model aviation supported by the AMA. The club currently promotes Scale, Giant Scale, Precision Aerobatics, Scale Aerobatics and 1/12th Scale W.W.II Combat with event status. We are proud to have top national competitors within our ranks. Our flying facility is located in Wetzel State Park. This state park is named after one of Michigan's thirteen Congressional Medal of Honor recipients. The Radio Control Club of Detroit constructed a War Memorial onsite and dedicated the facility "Wetzel Memorial Flying Field" on August 2nd, 1997. This state park is located in Lenox Twp. of Northern Macomb Co. Michigan. This is approximately 30 miles north of Detroit.
