Good news on the firewood. I was wondering how to get 4 airplanes, camping gear, firewood, and coolers in the back of my truck.

Well I got bad news and good news. The bad news is my new boss already posted our work schedule through Aug and I work that weekend.
Good news is we can swap with one of the other guys as much as we want as long as we get 40 hours a week from wednesday to wednesday. I'll have 4 days vacation built up so if I have too use that along with working a few shifts, I'm there. Already talked to another guy and looks like I'm going to pull a weekend shift end of February for him and he'll pull my weekend for SF-08. Will try be there thursday night and staying at the field.

TruBlu, Last year was my first Spadfest. I'm never going to miss another one! It was a great time and well worth the drive.

trublu,
you'll have to decide between campfire and festivities. We ran into the weeeeeee hours last year, no time for a fire, barely time for sleeping.

To be honest I am just happy to be going. It sounds like a blast and any reason to combine RC and camping is good enough excuse for me.

I was up at daylight each morning, and crashed each night around 2:30 a.m. or 3:00 a.m. Night flying the foamies was way too much fun. There might just be another tater singer or two present, if you can't get yours Elit95.

Later,
Omaha

Hey guys quick question. Do I need to get an AMA License? I don't fly at a club or anything so I never renewed my AMA card last year.

Yes ! This will be an AMA sanctioned event and we will be filing all the paperwork within the next month or so. When you get to SPADFEST, all you have to do is bring a current AMA card.

The Spadfest 08 Cafe Press store is up an ready for business! I know I said I was not going to do them, but since it only took a little bit of my time to set it up, it is done. There has been a minimal mark up on the items, in an effort to recoup some of the money I lost last year, on the shirts and caps.

Note The Value Tees only have the graphic on the front, there are no graphics on the back.


Later,
Omaha
