Flying at Teeland tomorrow night

Hi Gang,
 
Tomorrow night there will be fun and flying again at the Teeland gym. Please remember that the following Friday the 29th we are not on the schedule.  So tomorrow will be the last flying session of 2017.
 
Kudos to all who helped welcoming the new people to our flying session.  Kelly Foreman brought six well behaved home schooled kids ranging in age from 6 to 12 years old.  Also, Gene and Sandra Ford brought two kids of there own. 
 
Don't forget to charge your batteries and I'll see ya tomorrow night for some flying fun.

Cyclocopter and Slaughterbots

they now have a 30 gram one, the lifting vortex gets proportionally more powerful the smaller the cyclocopter gets

 

 

Ok, now this possibly is really scary

Teeland Flying Tonight

Hi Gang,
 
I have got a nice Christmas Card for Pattie the Costodian and a $100 gift card to Kohl's.  We will try to get everybody to sign the card and then we will present it to her.  For thoes of you who have donated, thank you very much.  We are a little bit short so we are still accepting donations.
 
We will be able to fly next week 12/22/17 but the following week 12/29/17 the Gym floor will be resurfaced so no flying then.
 
See ya tonight for some fun flying,
 
Bill Ross

Teeland Flying tomorrow night

Hi Gang,
 
Looks like we are good to go tomorrow the 8th.  Friday the 15th we are planning to presenting Patty the costodian with a gift.  BTW, Patty has been the best costodian in the last 4 years the I have been flying their.  We talked about just what we were going to get her.  In the past some of the gifts have been gift certificate from Fred Meyer and stuff like that.  Since Patty is a girl Jo Ann suggested we get her a $100 gift certificate from Koels.  That would be mostly girl stuff she would appreciate probably the most.  At any rate if you guys are good with that or whatever you decice, Lee has been asked to collect the donations.
 
Jo Ann and I both have the Flu and probably won't make it to tomorrow night session. Hope everybody has a wonderful time flying and we hope to be there next week to make the presentation to Patty.
 
Happy flying,
 
Bill
