2006 Fall Fun Fly Saturday October 7, was an absolutely beautiful day. For flying and our annual fall cookout. We had approximately 70 people for lunch and then 18 members flew in the four awards events. We also flew a ball drop catch and musical pylons as extra events. We had many spectators at all times as the weather was great and the field is in excellent shape. Special thanks to Deene Vanmeter and Tom Carlyle for all their help in scoring the events. Also, for Jim Huddleston and Matt Williams who were pylons for the Pony Express. I think everyone had fun and lots of flying.
