North Georgia Sky Rebels Contest Update
                     Sept. 10,11,12, 2021

1)   We will again have bar-b-que at the park on Saturday evening.  We need to get an idea who will be attending so we can order food.  Let
       us know by Sept 2nd.  Please!  Cost about $15.00 per person.  Phone 770-592-3279 (Tom or Becky Dixon) or email
       bdfourseasons@gmail.com  Put “Canton  Contest” in subject line.

2)   Ladies outing on Friday Sept.10th led by Becky Dixon.  Here too we need an idea of who to expect, so transportation can be planned.
       Same phone # and email as above.

3)   Our live music on Sat. evening will be by Brad Morgan (check him out on facebook) You do not have to have the meal to enjoy the music.
       It’s open to everyone.  The more you tip, the longer Brad plays!  Bill Pound, our musician last year, is involved in a major “reunion” of the
       Macon, Ga. music scene of the “60’s and “70’s and suggested Brad. It will be fun. Rock, Blues and Stunt!

4)   Our judges this year will include Ron Farmer (many times Nat’s & Team trials judge), and Richard Schneider (many times Nat’s Scale
       judge and FAI scale team member).  We have the best judging in the country! You will know how well you really fly!  Coaching and
       critique will be available too.

        We’re trying to make this not just a contest, but an “experience” for the whole family.  Ya’ll Come!  You’ll regret it if you don’t.

Best,   DennisT

PARK AND LOCAL AREA INFORMATION:

Etowah River Park has nicely manicured grass flying surfaces, permanent clean brick restrooms, walking trails, paved parking, and river scenery. We are very fortunate the City of Canton has allowed one of its parks to host this model aviation event. Brown Industrial Pkwy. ends at entry to park – veer left and follow road to large grass area surrounded by sidewalk.

Canton is located near the foot of the North Georgia mountains. It has a nice ole-time downtown. The area has an abundance of great trails, rivers, apple orchards and vineyards. Lake ALLATOONA is nearby with campsites, RV areas, etc.   In addition, there are outlets stores about 10 miles south of Canton on the I-575 corridor. If coming from the South exit off I-75 to I-575 to right at exit 268. This will take you on towards Canton. Most of the motels in Canton are off Exit 20.
