  Hi Rick;
   Send me an email to : dpmcenthusiast@aol.com, and I will forward the flyer to you that Charlie Reeves sends out. The contest this year is complicated by the impending solar eclipse. Paducah is in the path of totality and hotels have been booked for a long time at greatly increased rates. I got an email from Charlie recently that info for a couple of motels that still had rooms at regular rates, and i will forward that to you also. I think the local club is the Paducah Aeromodelers and they have a web site, and the info should be on there also. You might be able to find that by googling. If you have never been, it's a great contest with a nice site. The heat and humidity can get up there, but there is lots of shade under a long pavilion in the pits. Several nice grass circles for competition and practice. I may only be able to go for Sunday this year due to work.
  Type at you later,
  Dan McEntee

They also allow camping on the grounds.
Not sure if there is running water.
