Thought I would post this, we had a great time last year with a fanastic bbq at Lee's place. Tasty steaks, maybe a little Caribou, and plenty of liquid refreshments.


The North Central Pylon League will be holding its 3rd annual City of Lakes Pylon Race in Amery , WI on September 27th, 2008 at the Amery Municipal Airport .

The coarse will be up at 8:00am, pilots meeting at 9:30 sharp and the race will start at 10:00am. This will be a single day, two event race starting with 4 heats of AMA 428 followed by 4 heats of AMA 422.

I have some helpers already but there is always room for more if anyone wants to come up and lend a hand.

Special Notes:

Engines approved will be SS versions only, no LS engines in either class.

Steak dinner at my house following the race, $20/Person. Coarse workers eat free! (RSVP please)

If you would like to stay in Amery you can contact the Forrest Inn @ 715/268-4100… Rates run about $50/night.

C/D: Lee LaValley

Starter: TBD

1. Take I-94 EAST - go 35.4 miles

2. Take WI exit #19/US-63 toward ELLSWORTH/BALDWIN

3. Turn left onto US HIGHWAY 63[US-63] - Continue to follow US-63 NORTH - go 13.2
