        If someone does not post the score board shortly I will tonight. They will be in the contest results section. Too busy doing "honey do's", "Yes dear I'm coming".

      Scores now in the contest result section. Steve Kocher and his dad, Fred, will probably post pic's soon. Special mention should be made of the MASA RC club for providing so much help. Thanks to Jason Cunningham, Mr. Greer, Jason Greer, Norm Faith jr., Mike Makepeace, Peggy Makepeace(her great food), the MM GALS their help in running the contest and their great snacks, and a host of others. This is a great place to attend a contest. I have so much fun around these people.

My Dad and I took over 6,000 photos at the contest.  My Dad spent several hours going through them and compressing about 100 of them.  I will post a few of them right now and post some more later.  Here is just a few...

       Thank you Steve for the great pic's. Steve and Fred,his Dad, go to practically all DVIII contests and even to other district contests taking their great pic's. We appreciate their support so much! Norm thanks for catching Mr. Norton's mistake about the contest name-a mistake understandably easily made. John Gunn is very much alive!! He was with us both days of the contest looking great! It was you Norm who renamed the contest- We were all scratching our heads wondering what the new title would be when you solved the problem-thanks.

Wowzers....there were some beautiful planes there!  Love the pics of the planes in the air with a trail of smoke coming from them.  Memories.
